Ezekial has finally lumbered off.
Sunday – we all tucked ourselves indoors, almost
eagerly anticipating the snow scheduled to begin at 11:00 a.m. but which couldn’t
be bothered to show up until around 3:00. Still, we put on our fluffy socks, watched
the first snow of the season and turned our thoughts to indoor projects. Snug.
Monday – we woke up to a healthy dose of the white
stuff, but I was able to stroll around our complex on the shoveled sidewalks. More
indoor projects – turkey soup, sewing, and finishing up a query letter to
prospective agents for the third book. It would’ve been nice to get out, but nothing
that couldn’t wait till the next day. Cozy.
Tuesday – we woke up to snow falling on the
additional foot we’d received overnight. Finished a couple of pillows, made oatmeal cookies
neither of us needed after Thanksgiving.
Cozy was wearing a bit thin: the maintenance guys
didn’t unblock our driveway until 3:00, the sidewalks and the path to our front
door until 5:00 or so. We could forget about that order arriving from UPS, or
anything other than a dog sled team.
Today I have my annual appointment with my
dermatologist –
Out of the house! Driving the car! Other people!
I’m quivering in the excitement.

Yikes! That is a LOT of snow. I hope you made it out and about without any problems. And no, I can't see the dog on the sidewalk. Where? :-)
ReplyDeleteExactly. I knew I'd taken the picture, but only after much squinting did I find her. She's the less-white patch 3/4s of the way up the walk.
DeleteWow -- the dog really blends in! I kind of miss days like that, being socked in and just watching TV and getting things done around the house. We never get that much snow here.
ReplyDeleteWow.
ReplyDeleteMy animal concious eyes did spot the dog - who I suspect was very happy to come inside.
We continue to be hot and windy. Fires continue to burn. Forgive me, but your snow looks very, very tempting.
Merciful heavens, as much as I crave snow, that is a bit much. Yep, I found her.
ReplyDeleteStay warm and safe.
That is quite a dumping. We only have a little at this point.
ReplyDeleteHaven't had that amount yet, and can do without it. At cards Monday we marveled at the unusual trajectory of this storm that took it along the northern edges of the great lakes.
ReplyDeleteSnow is nice in decent amounts but what you had is insane.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of snow and you still have how many months to go? Mamie was easy to spot, snow doesn't have waves like Mamie's tail.
