More of the same

Snow and more snow.  Fierce winds.  Bitter cold.

With more to come.  Oh yippee oh yay (NOT).

I hauled out the snowblower late yesterday afternoon and did the driveway and turnaround.  When I was done I came inside, got out of the layers of winter gear, got into my comfy clothes then went back out to take a pic of my achievement.

What "achievement"?  All that greeted me and my camera by then was 3-4" of new snow!  It was as if I'd never gone out.

Instead of railing against the weather, I lit a candle in the front window and huddled around the unfailing geraniums and dreamed of Spring to come.

That lasted maybe a minute. LOL  Candles and flowers helped a lot to lift my spirits, but it was a big bowl of homemade spicy chicken and rice waiting for me in the kitchen that sealed the deal.

Mmmmm.  Goooood.

It is still snowing this morning.  Curse you Lake Erie!  Freeze over already!  Ah well... there's still gas in the snowblower and lots of spicy chicken leftovers to fuel the little engine-that-could (and -must) that is me.

Stay safe and snug.
