the weather has been quite silly lately…

there was hardly any snow on the ground last week, but then it snowed all afternoon on Wednesday…

a lot of snow came down… the only thing I shovelled then was a path to the hot tub…

very late that night my housemate shovelled the sidewalk and two-thirds of the driveway…

Friday I did about half of the bottom of the driveway as my friend would be picking me up on Saturday…

I was so proud that it only took me about fifteen minutes… and then my housemate did the same amount in five minutes…

kids, lol…

correct…

the weather report had suggested a good amount of snow overnight, and they were correct, lol…

yesterday morning the ground was covered with at least two inches of snow… it looked pretty though…

it was deeper where it had blown into drifts… which, of course, were along the sidewalks and bottom of the driveway, lol…

I went out just after eight and got the sidewalks cleared as well as a portion of the driveway where my friends park on Monday afternoons…

thankfully, my housemate shovelled the remainder of the driveway…

my friends arrived and we had a great time with lots of delicious snacks;-)…

a bit later a Hydro Inspector arrived and reviewed the work done by the furnace installation company…

I was very happy that this time we passed the inspection… yay…

busy, busy…

life-giving…

yesterday I was sitting in the living room watching the snow fall gently outside as I prepared to do some reading…

thinking of how blessed I truly am as I send healing thoughts to so many in my circle and beyond who are struggling with difficult times…

having good health, a comfortable home, food to eat, and companions during these wintry days is life-giving and it is important to remember what a good life I have…

silly…

can I just say the weather has been silly for at least a week…

last Friday it was snowing as I went to an appointment in the morning… by the end of the day it was basically all gone…

on Wednesday it snowed like crazy and as I headed out to the car after work – in my sandals – I realized that I did not have a brush or scrapper to clean it off… happily I had a cloth in the trunk which helped clean off the snow from the windows…

when I got home I pulled out some brushes and cleared off the roof which was still covered with the wet snow… thank goodness it melted away overnight and the garage isn’t going to be filled with snow all winter…

today it has been raining/snowing all day so I haven’t left the house…

hoping tomorrow is better because I still don’t have a turkey, lol…

away…

woke up to snow falling… a fair bit came down through the night and it looked beautiful…

as I drove away I realized how big the drifts were…

after lunch I met a young friend at Total Wrapture and we had pedicures… then I decided to have a French manicure and in the end agreed to a shellac one… first time for that, so I will see how long it lasts…

home for a rest and quick supper and then off to see Come From Away with my buddy…

that’s her in the row in front of me and 3 seats over… I am calmly sitting here in the balcony ready for the show to begin, but it will be odd not to be able to chat with her throughout the play;-(… not too fond of heights so we got here in plenty of time to get into our seats while the lights were still on, lol…

wonderful show;-)…

it snowed quite a bit overnight… as I was pulling out of the driveway the house looked so pretty that I had to stop and get a picture…

  

fresh snow makes everything beautiful…

started snowing on the drive to work… it was hard to see and very slippery… the snowfall lasted for a good portion of the day but by the time I left the office the car was clean… the temperature was over zero and it had melted… crazy weather, lol… main streets were practically dry…

sadly when we got on the side streets there was still tons of snow… 

my grandson met me at work so he could ride home and shovel for me…

  
we had supper and he got all the sidewalks and driveway cleared…

   

it’s been two years since my wall was painted purple so I spent a few minutes enjoying the beauty of the living room before heading on up to bed…
