Jack Frost Comes to Town

We had a sprinkling of snow/sleet today.
Some stayed in the valley of our roof.
It also collected on my plant coverings:
And the frost has done a number on my Mexican Petunia, but never fear this baby will come back with a vengeance.
Actually I've used the cold weather to help in my weeding. This Mexican Petunia will be one of those plants that gets the heck trimmed out of it. Actually we may even pull this whole invasive plant up.
Ugh, that's hard for me cause I love this plant. It's daily fresh blooms remind me so much of God's grace and mercy in my life; but, it's invasive properties and the fact that it sits on top of our septic tank- roots and tanks don't blend well- makes it high on the "get rid of" list.
I have enjoyed the cold weather but have noticed I become a wimp in the cold. It really takes me a good deal of courage to get out into it, but when I do, the cold air is refreshing.
Well that's about it for now.
