Looks Like A Winter Wonderland

February 10, 2017

Good morning.  Oh golly, it's c-c-c-cold!!!  Only 16F degrees!!  Aha!  But the sun is shining.  No, it is not making it feel warmer.  We are buried in  more than a foot of snow.  I went out on my porch to take some photos, but first I had to sweep the snow off the porch.  By then, my hands were frozen!  So I did not take any photos.  Sorry. 

One of the dwarfs, James, is outside shoveling.  So far, he has about half the driveway done.  My car is still buried, but he will get to it as soon as he makes it over to my part of the driveway.  I was going to start the car's engine and let it run for a while to melt some of the snow off it, but the remote starter doesn't seem to want to work.  I'll try it again in a while.

Yesterday was quite the day.  First the snow started late and light, but soon the wind started getting brisker and the snow got heavier.  Pretty soon it looked like a heavy fog outside.  The snow kept piling up, and did not stop here until around nine thirty last evening. 

I had made plans to have a plow come here and clean out the whole driveway, but no one had cleaned off and moved their cars by the time the guy was ready to come here so he decided not to come at all.  Today the snow is a bit more difficult to shovel up because it froze overnight.  For all that this snow might be pretty, it is more a nuisance to me.  It was pretty coming down, and it will be even prettier when it is all gone. 

You know what's even sadder?  There's two or three more days coming up with snow in the forecast.  Oh dear.  Florida sounds like Paradise to me!!!

Last evening I finished the Flamingo hat and took a photo of the whole set before I packed it away with the other sets.  It really is a beautiful color.


Before I put out the light to nod off, I started the next hat.  This one will match the "Butterfly" scarf.  After that, I think there are still two more hats to go before I can start on a new color.  Slowly, I'm getting there. 

Today I have a new quick page for you.  This one features Lola enjoying her box of Valentine chocolates.  Yum! Yum!  Have fun with it.

Now I need to wash the breakfast dishes and sit down with another stack of receipts.  Oh joy, oh joy!  So till Sunday, Y'all have a fantabulous weekend.

Hugs, Edna B.
