    SNOW Storm!

    Would the snow please stop already?!?!!?!?!!?
    I think we have gotten at least 12 inches since 6am this am. I wanted some snow to have something pretty to look at, but not this much to keep me cooped up in the house.....It's so powdery, its neat. Here are a few pics I took of my balcony this morning, it's much deeper now. Anyone else affected by this storm?

    Don't feel too bad - we have it here in DE too. It didn't start here till around noon, and we have about 4" right now and it's supposed to snow all night. And this is the storm that the forecasters said we wouldn't get because it was staying to the south of us. Don't even need a snow shovel - I just took the broom and swept off the back porch a couple of times. It's just like powder.
    My poor brother - I swear he's jinxed. He lives in NC and was "supposed" to be driving to FL today to take care of some business next week. He ain't goin nowhere/nohow for at least today anyway, and probably not tomorrow either. The same thing happened to him the week before Christmas - the day before he was supposed to drive down, they had a fairly good snow and he had to postpone it for a day.

    Where at in Virginia are you? My son lives in the Norfolk area... LOL! THAT'S why my grand daughter asked me last night if we had snow (she lives there close to her Dad)... I was born and raised in Lynchburg.

    We had about 5 inches of snow here in about 6 or 7 hours, then it started to sleet. It did that for about 3 hours. Then it turned to freezing rain. It is all crusty ice that looks like snow now. It was snowing today again. Tonight it is going to get down into the single digits. It won't be melting anytime soon.

    Ice on some berry type things.


    Ice on blades of grass.


    Aroara thought she wanted to go outside.


    Then she changed her mind and wanted to go back inside. Notice how she doesn't even make prints in the snow because it is hard due to the ice.


    It's much better to be inside and warm.


    The cardinals are always so pretty in the snow.



    Time helps the sadness subside, but the memories remain forever.

    Be careful if you have to go out Moe!. I'd rather drive in a foot of snow than just a glaze of ice.
    It's still snowing here.
    I love that last pic with the cardinal. We have a lot of cardinals here and they are my favorites. They look beautiful against a new fallen snow.
    I don't think I've ever seen a pic of Aroara - she's so pretty!

    I love the picture of the cardinal in the ice. I hadn't seen Aroara either - is she related to Pinot?

    She may be a wicked stepsister.

    Amazing as it is, we only have flurries. Our cold is back, today was -25 but at least no storm to go along with that cold. I hope our luck holds out, I can do without the storms this winter.

    Goodness, how do you ever get warm with that kind of cold weather. I'd be in bed with all my babies under a pile of covers. Brrrrrr!

    We have around six inches here in in East TN, hehe. Lily wasn't even making an imprint in the snow but she was sliding around on it because it was mainly ice . And Roxy had to poop on top of the snow, LOL
