the big ooze...

after days of thawing...
this ice sheet is still on the car...
the road right behind the driveway...
reflections...
my little buddy got his shadow...
light, shadow and slowly melting ice...
icicles and sticks...
they are everywhere...
this is a major improvement...
it is in the sun all day long and it's finally giving up the ice...
should be gone by tomorrow afternoon...
this one last limb is still frozen to the ground...
and there is one place by the dryer vent that has grass...
Craig calls these icicle grave yards...
it looks like this under all the trees...
this is the bottom of the front steps...
the standing water will go over the top of your shoe...
the birds will have drinking water for awhile now...
the driveway...
slimy...
see the moon in the middle?
clear blue skies and it's 45 right now...
we are heading for the 50s later this week...
I got out on the deck...
but I'm not allowed off of it yet...
besides, my chair doesn't have fenders...
it's still a little too cold to play in the mud...
still playing around in here...
hang tags, more flowers, shopping on line...
may make some cards...
who knows...
I have ate too much...
DH made pancakes for breakfast and it's been all downhill from there...
he loves the new skillet I got online...
it's wonderful...
I will post on it later...
gotta go play again...

Better to see it melting than coming down. Enjoy your day.

I'm glad to see someone is thawing.. We were 'supposed' to thaw today with the predictions of 50' degrees.. ha! That NEVER happened... but what did happen was I slipped on the ice and went down on my knees and elbows.. I think I'm going to be one sore puppy tomorrow... Ouch.. that hurt.. :(
