I couldn't stand the craving anymore and baked chocolate chip cookies this afternoon. A soft warm cookie and mug of hot cocoa are the perfect post shoveling workout repast. Okay, maybe not perfect but it sure is tasty! Hubbyfink felt like he was losing man points by "letting" me bundle up and shovel the knee-high drifts from the steps and front ( Read more... )

National Weather Service has upped the snow accumulation amount for tomorrow and replaced the Winter Storm Watch with a Winter Storm Warning.

( Details below the fold. )

I cleaned the house and completed homework yesterday. Today, we shoveled the walk and parking spaces and cleared snow off the cars. I have eaten bacon. It's now time for hot cocoa with a splash of Bailey's while watching the icicles glitter and melt in the sunshine.

Whoo boy, it's really blowing out there now. The winds were pretty much non-existant when I left the house at 7:15. This made cleaning the snow off the Jeepfink a fairly easy job. Wait. It snowed and I didn't stay home to telecommute? Of course not! Today was the machine circuit in the gym! I can't do the machine circuit at home, silly reader ( Read more... )

Opened my email this morning to find a couple of notes from Mom. The first said, "The pool's open and ready for you; although, it may be a little chilly." ( Come on in; the water's fine! )

The neighborkid is shovelling the ice-packed snow off the sidewalk in front of Sam's house, his house, my house, and the other neighbor's house. What a good egg.

Yes, I'm working from home again. Because I can. Ha ha ( Read more... )

It's bee-you-tiful outside! When I jumped out of bed, I pulled open the curtain and beheld a winter wonderland outside my window. Yay! I think conditions will deteriorate as the day progresses and I decided to work from the comfort of my living room.

( Bear with me; this snow thing is still new and exciting. )

It's snowing in Sterling. Yay!!!
In other news... danabren says I need to learn to knit so I can make this Rat Race scarf. Hee!
