Snowy day

Snow tires might have been good.

Winter wonderland

It snowed Friday night. Really snowed. Cold and windy and blizzardy. Yes, I just made up that word. A good night to stay in and keep warm. The next day was beautiful. This is my back yard. Looks like a jungle out there.

Strange Days

Make no mistake, it's cold out there. 10 degrees F or less all day. We woke up to snow, now there is a little breeze so when it's snowing, the snow hits you right in the face no matter what direction you are going and if it's not snowing at the moment, the wind pretty much hits you in the face any direction you are going. It's cold out there. A walk across campus to a meeting and back pretty much confirmed the snow and cold in your face. Then, getting a ride to the grocery store because of the aforementioned cold and walking back in yet a different direction with the wind in your face making you cold. Then you feel the cold. At the grocery store, picking up something for lunch and pausing..... frozen food section...... Ben and Jerry's ice cream..... Ben and Jerry's chocolate fudge brownie ice cream. It's only a $1. I had some last summer and it was wonderful. Picking it up and buying it to eat for dessert. Oh yum.
Oh, did I mention it's cold out there?

Snow

We woke up this morning to snow softly falling outside. It's still softly falling but the roads weren't bad at all. This is more snow than we've had in years and since it's staying cold, the snow isn't melting either. I love watching the snow coming down. Actually I usually don't mind driving in it either as long as I can see decently well. People tend to not go out in the snow either so that means the office quiets down too.

Winter

Well finally, instead of rain we have snow falling. It's not real cold out there today (hence the rain). I have a nice fire going and I'm cleaning and such. I've started plying the merino/tencel and it's driving me crazy. I see why people like tensioned lazy kates now. I spun it really fine and the singles love to twist back on themselves before I get them plied. It's going to take me awhile so please be patient. *smile*
