It's A New Year!

I hope everyone had a safe and Happy New Year! It started snowing here a little before midnight. We got dumped on again. Sixteen inches. Then to top it off we lost power from 9 AM until almost 7 PM! We postponed our family dinner until later in the week. We did some shoveling. Played with Rosie, who loves sitting in the snow waiting for something interesting to come by. And, went a little stir crazy without the computer or TV. It's amazing how many things we do that require electricity! But it's so pretty to look at. We got some more lake effect snow this morning. Big fluffy flakes. I hope we don't loose to many more limbs off the trees. It's really heavy wet snow. The evergreens look like they have a thick layer of white frosting covering their boughs while they nod their heads at each other. Smaller trees and bushes are bent all the way to the ground. Beautiful, but hard on them. Still don't have the driveway cleared. Ron's spent today working on it going between using the snow blower and the little tractor with a blade.



While I spent the last couple weeks working on finishing my projects that were to be Christmas presents, (Unfortunately I lost the pictures I took when my mac mini crashed the day after Christmas!) Ron's been busy making more wooden bowl
s and things. I really love some of the new ones. The pictures don't do them justice. The grains are beautiful and they feel wonderful!
