Snow-ma-geddon #3



The view from the back door about 2AM Saturday morning. . .Starting to pile up a bit.

Snow-ma-geddon #57



Our Direct TV was working on all the TVs but one yesterday morning. We tried everything 'cause as luck would have it, the one TV that wasn't working was in the room where we watch TV most often.

C finally called Direct TV who indicated they believed we were "getting some snow in our area." That might be the understatement of the year.

The kind lady at Direct TV indicated our signal was probably too weak to reset that particular receiver. Bummer.

But then I got a text message from an old friend who reminded me we should clear off our dish. Eureka!

C got to it. Getting on the desk, leaning out the window, knocking the snow of the dish with a broom.

It worked! C is my hero! An afternoon of sloth ensued.

Snow-ma-geddon #86



Our street yesterday afternoon after it finally stopped. Notice the street itself. No signs of a plow. Likely no hope of one coming today either.

C digs a path to the trash cans in the yard yesterday mid-morning. Where do we put it all?

Diggin Out



Molly on our street this morning. . .

We're continuing to dig out. When I say we, I mean C. He just informed me I gave up snow shoveling on our wedding day. That wasn't the only item on his list of things I started saying "I don't to" but it's the only one fit to be published. haha

Anyway, more pics to post and will do so through the day.

This snow is wretched. No plow will touch our street and it's drifted so badly some cars are nearly covered to the roof. I'm not entirely sure how anyone parked on this street plans to get to work in the next month let alone the Monday! I'd like to keep an eye on the street and offer cocoa and spiked coffee and baked goods to brave shovelers. . .Now if only I had any of those things to offer.

I wanted to bake yesterday; however, sloth set in from the start and all I did was watch Twin Peaks re-runs, read, and take pics from our windows. Today is off to a better start.

Snow-ma-geddon #18



O freaking K weather forecasters. . .It ain't braggin' if you can do it. It's crazy snowing here. Touche.

Meanwhile, I'd be sending more frequent pics if it wasn't for some stupid AT&T/Blogger glitch that seems to have been on-going for about a month now according to the Blogger tech blog. That would explain why I couldn't figure out why my obviously all-important posts weren't being sent to the blog from my Blackberry.

Thank AT&T for missing out on my commentary and pics during my 2 hour stint at the grocery store last evening. . .Vomit-cute cat pics. . .My smarmy commentary about Martha Stewart's latest Living mag. AND that was just last night.

Hello AT&T?

Upside? I have to get out the real camera. Plus no TV allowed me to download a bunch of tunes and I'm quite enjoying Mac MacNally currently. Hunkered down. Adult Beverages, snack mix. . .oh yeah, a radio and flashlight. . .just in case. . .
