Oh yes, it snowed

It was raining for quite awhile last night, even past midnight, and I thought maybe we wouldn't get the snow after all. It must have turned cold enough though. The forsythia is blooming; flowers in the snow.The squirrel is busy eating out of the bird feeder and greedy guy that he is, he is dropping a lot to the ground so the birds just sit and wait for their food. There is another squirrel in the background too, waiting his turn at the feeder.
It looks like 3" or so from inside the house and it looks heavy and wet, just like they predicted. It is still coming down and the city has plowed the street already this morning. If all the rain we got had been snow it would have been more than a foot deep, so we are lucky. It looks like a good sewing day.

  4. We can call today's snow, winter's last "Hurrah"..and a good day to stay in quilting. Bright colors for a gloomy day. Your strips and curves have me thinking of doing another one after I finish the last one I made a few years ago. Where does the time go?

  5. Originally they had forecast snow for us too, now I think they are talking about tomorrow. It was beautiful yesterday & today looks like more of the same.

    Your pictures are pretty, at least we know it won't last too long now!

  9. I looked out the window at 4am, and it was just beginning to snow. It's so SLOPPY out there; thank the goddess I don't need to go out anywhere. It's still doing something that looks like snow/rain outside.

  10. I'm sure the forsythia won't agree with me, but those pictures are beautiful.
    Take good care, however!

  12. We were supposed to get some of that stuff, but lucky us, most of the day we had very faint snow (couldn't hardly see it) and nothing stuck to the ground.

    Hope you got lots done indoors.
