Where Did February Go? Part One

Snow followed by cold followed by snow, followed by more cold.  That pretty much sums up most of February.  Cars, geese, and deer alike are not moving very quickly in this deep freeze.  

Some of my favorite memes that are circulating include the following:

• Who Made Elsa Mad?
• Just Keep Shoveling. Just Keep Shoveling.
• Tell us what you've done with the grass, snowman?!
• Dear Winter:  I think it's time we broke up.  I can't put up with your icy disposition any longer.
• 40 Days with lows below zero...but it's supposed to be in the teens next week.  So I got that going for me, which is nice. 

And now for some of my own memes--I call them mines.  LOL! 

I thought I had the blues, but just had the setting on my camera wrong for the snow picture, so I guess it's just cabin fever after all.

The dry air is a shock to the system.  

My skin has had enough abuse.  Winter is not all that it's cracked up to be.

I'm currently buying lotion in bulk.  I had it delivered on a pallet last week.

My electric bill surpassed my grocery budget, so I unplugged my freezer, and threw everything outside.


At least the bugs are gone! :)

Countdown to Christmas - Photo Challenge - Day 3:SNOW

There's no business like snow business! 

I don't envy the snowplow drivers this time of year OR the postal carriers!

Some heavy snowfalls blanketed our area last winter.  Weighing down our more fragile arborvitae to the point of no return, they had to be cut down this fall.

While we were in Colorado in September, we awoke to a bit of frozen precipitation on our last day there.  It gave the trees a pretty sugar-frosted look.

I do like a little snow on the ground for the Christmas light displays to look like something out of a magazine, but I would rather not drive in the slippery white stuff month after month.

It seems like winter takes up close to half of the year.  I'm really looking forward to becoming a snowbird someday soon :)
