Bye 2020, No One Will Miss You

We are all thrilled that 2020 is almost gone. It won’t make Covid go away but there is more hope in the start of the new decade. 2021 brings hope on many levels.

The whole House of Misfit Toys are hoping to have outside adventures more often.  We are lucky to get to the Arboretum and other outside places.  We hope to one day soon be able to attend inside adventures again.

Everyone including The Roomies are a little stir crazy after almost a year of Sheltering.  So here is to the New Year!  Here is to Peace in our land.  Here is to Covid being neutralized and to possible adventures again.

We hope you like the new look for 2021!

Happy New Year from all of us to all of you!

Christmas 2020

Only 3 days until Christmas 2020.  This year is much quieter than previous Christmas’. 

We loved the Christmas Story town lights display.  Always a good time.

On behalf of the Entire Misfit Toys Island Ferris Smurf wants to wish you all a wonderful Christmas filled with Hope!

And if you don’t celebrate Christmas…

The Misfits want to wish you all a wonderful and happy Friday!!!!

Then The Snows Came…

The Roomie was having a helava couple of days.  First there was a Covid Scare.  All Negative, thank you! 

Then the Snows came.  Well, snow, freezing rain, a frozen mush from the sky.  Not so much fun there.

It was beautiful and pretty.  But it was also very wet, slushy and dangerous.  Also very heavy to lift! 

The Roomie had the day off to dig out which was amazing.  Because lifting that heavy stuff kind of stunk. 

Gritty, who is from the Planet Philly Dilly, loved it all.  He’s very weird like that, lol.  We all liked the first official snow (we’ve had squalls).  Since we received only about 12 inches of snow all last winter, getting it all at once was okay.  Not looking for too much more but we are sure Mother Nature has the only say, lol.

Keep warm peeps!

The First Fire Pit of the Season

It finally got a little cooler in the neighborhood to have a nice fire pit.  No worries it was safe and in a safe zone.

We made S’mores and laughed and had a nice evening until the fire drew down.  It’s getting more summerish again but for those 2 days it was like autumn had come early.  Hopefully we get more of these good times again soon.  There wasn’t much laboring during the Labor Day Weekend!

Tonight…more rain.  Well at least we aren’t in a drought.

All About The Clouds

The Roomie has been into cloud watching recently.  We really aren’t sure why this is now a thing for her, lol.

Signe thinks they are neat too.  She wishes it was colder and snowy but other than that the clouds are cool.  Since Homie used to live outside in a garden in bad weather and all he’s just into looking at them and then sleeping in a nice comfy bed at night out of the elements.

Gordo’s favorite…definitely the storm clouds.  We’ve had quite a few of these lately.  Hurricane Laura brought us clouds and rain over a couple of days.  Any way you look at it, the clouds are like sky art 🙂
