8 inches and its blowing...

the snow is taller than Bebe...
he had to potty in the road today...

its plastered on everything...

and all this nitrogen is going to make the spring and summer flowers grow so much!

winter's one last covering...

the cats followed Craig's footsteps...

DH made it the 8 miles to work this morning...

and by next weekend, they are calling for 50s again...

I'll bet its a bit mushy and we don't get to play in the yard...
might be a good time to clean off the deck and get it ready for some serious sittin' time out there...
so, did Virgil dump on you?
I sure do hope this is the last of this stuff...
mowing beats shoveling any day, no matter how pretty it looks out there...
the house is so bright in here...
with the snow reflecting all the light out there...
should build a snowman, but my butt's not going out there...
not until it warms up!

Virgil....what a guy...

stuck inside again...

but there is always something to do in here...

this was this morning after the first round had gone through...

wood pecker came to eat...

its a very wet snow and sticking to everything...

and I have spent some time just watching the birds and the snow...

I am sure they are shocked...

we have several pairs of cardinals here...

and the snow started in again about an hour ago...

and we went from this...

to this...
and so it will continue until morning...
so...
until it all melts away...
you will know where to find me...
INSIDE!
hugs...
;)

selling on facebook...

I posted these 2 things on my facebook page to sell...

not sure if its the place to get it done or not...
but going to give it a shot first...
$7 each...
made them yesterday...
its nice to be playing around again...
might have to start another blog to sell things on...
not sure what I am going to do...
but really do not want to do ebay or etsy...

got a winter storm on its way...
should hit here about 4am...
the joy of snow...
can't wait for the first mowing...
and the first tan...
went for 2 walks today, in the 50s...

hope you are having a good weekend...
and are able to get out a bit...
still too early to garden here, but it won't be long...
;)

its beginning to look a lot like spring...

on the inside, anyway...

its in the 20s on the outside with wind...

guess where I am not today...

I so wished I would have painted this a long time ago...

they say there is a snow storm coming in on Sunday with accumulation...
like I want any of that...


and I have blogging friends are still wading around snow drifts and haven't even a path to her clothesline...
I am so ready for the mercury to rise...
and for green grass and crocus...
tulips and dogwoods...
so here is just a little of my puttering today...
which simply wore me out...
and we have had lunch...
so the next thing in line is more pt and a nap...
I have been a very good girl, so I think a long nap is ok...

what are you up to?
have you been playing?
are your crocus blooming?

hugs...
;)

work in progress...

a friend of Craig's stopped by tonight...
and she agreed to help with some moving around...
I need to take the lavender out and dust the top of the shaker jar...
a project to do tomorrow...

they moved the mantel back to the wall for me...
and the table is in front of the windows...
so I can watch for spring the proper way...
but remember the old green wall paper that was on the front of this?
I decided to paint it...
black...
and I love it...
so later when I feel better and can bend more...
I am painting the inside, too...
and I had them remove the black metal panels...
they are now on the deck and I will find something to do with them later...

and tomorrow I will redo the top of the mantel...

and see what happens there...

kind of a slow, sore day here today...
maybe did a bit too much yesterday...
but working through it and keeping up with the pt and my own yoga/ weights program...
just takes me longer to get through them...
I so need more energy...
like that of a 7 year old would be nice...
;)
hope you are all having a good week...
and you didn't get any of that nasty snow that hit some...
and if you have that snow...
that it melts soon and releases the wonders of spring just waiting to come forth...
we could all use some sun screen and flip flop weather...
hugs...
