I need to make this quick as our power is flickering and I'm worried it may go out again... but I wanted to tell you......we were hit yesterday with a MAJOR snow storm that dropped 21" of heavy, wet snow here in our area.....WOW!!!!
With this one storm we made up for our previous lack of snow in a big way!!! It was a damaging snow though...it was/is so heavy..it broke branches, knocked down shrubs and trees and knocked out power to thousands of folks in our area...
I think I had better stop wishing for big ole fashioned snow storms...this storm was a LOT of work..and now we have storm #2 on it's way here and bringing with it high winds and rain mixed in with the snow..if you do not hear from me...you will know..we've lost our power again!!On the bright side.................
...it was unbelievably beautiful...I made homemade chicken vegetable soup, homemade rolls, took a nice long bubble bath in which I started reading "Eat, Pray, Love"..what a wonderful book!!!....and enjoyed the cozy fire and worked in the studio.....but I also helped my husband plow and shovel...holy smokes..that's a lot of work!!!!Oh..I also want to share with you.....that.... my car is amazing!!!! I have a Subaru Outback..and ....I have always known it was great in the snow..I've had it for 3 years and not once...NOT ONCE..ever slid with this car...but let me tell you..yesterday..MY car drove up our driveway through 8" of heavy, wet snow...like it was nothing...NOTHING..it just crawled right up it...I was surprised..I may....3-4" of snow..sure..but 8"!!! MY goodness...that was amazing!!!!!!.I'm telling you..I could do a Subaru commercial... God I love my car!!!
Okay...I really need to shut this computer down before the power goes out..have a wonderful day everyone!!! D

Oh Doreen! Be safe and warm! And Congratulations to Dru! (:
Wow - 21"!!! Hope you don't lose your power, that is so frustrating. The pictures are beautiful, especially that little red cardinal on the white snow. Stay warm and enjoy that wood fire, Dawn
Beautiful photos, even though it is stormy!!! Gorgeous one of the snow and the bird.....wow what a ton of snow! Congratulations to Dru, lucky girl, she'll be thrilled!!!
Hugs,

Thanks for the snow pix...beautiful but I know how frustrating it is when the snow is heavy and breaks shrub and tree branches. Our rare snows in Georgia have done that and it is a lot of work to clean up and restore. I hope you stay warm, retain power, and can enjoy some hibernation time!
Congrats to the lucky winner!
Doreen, Oh my god !!!I am just so glad you finally got your storm ,now canwe move on to spring?? That Jennalee what a treasure , one of only 16 students in Paul Smith to make the Deans List !!!! She is headed for greatness I do believe. Love Mom
Hi Doreen,
I hope you're keeping warm today. We actually got 4" of snow here a couple of weeks ago. It was amazing. Only happens every 15 to 20 years, nothing like what you get there. I know it must be annoying at times but oh how beautiful it is!
I just wanted to drop by and say hi and thanks for coming by and visiting with me!

Hi Doreen,
I just saw that your power is back on after 12 hours off. So glad that it is back on.
Your snow photos are beautiful.
Congratulations to your lucky winner of your beautiful giveaway.
Happy weekend
Hugs

Man o man, that's a lot of snowmen!!! My father-in-law said it was bad, with more on the way, but I think you got hit worse than he did. But you did get to relax, read, cook, and do a Subaru commercial! I'll check back later, to make sure the snowmen are all lined up.
