Thursday, December 18, 2008What? I don't know either of these gentlemen but was using the sport section of an old newspaper on the work bench in the loom shop and this picture kept drawing my eye. I could not decide if I was seeing the agony or ecstasy. I gave in to curiosity and read the caption. I discovered that the guy in front had just made the winning basket and the guy behind is not about to throttle him, but is giving him a congratulatory hug. Those are indeed Happy Faces we're seeing.  I hope you're wearing your version of a happy face today! We are getting an absolutely lovely, soft and fluffy, snow shower today. I can't even call it a storm as it does not seem a bit stormy. But we don't have to dream of a white christmas any more... we got ours! Merry merry! posted @ 02:28 PM PST [link] Tuesday, December 16, 2008December Morning I know some of you will think our 24 degree morning is balmy compared to your own, but it's brisk enough for me! This row of sparklers is hanging outside my kitchen window this morning. The world is still, the sky mostly blue and all solidly frozen. I hope the wild critters have all found snug dens or gone south. The snowfall of the last two days is still on the trees, but when the sun comes up it will probably start falling. Bombing some might call it. You want to stay under cover until that stage is past! Stay home if you can. Be very careful out there if you can't. And stay warm, either way!

And a good kind of snow, light and dry. good for living with, not too good for the future of or water supply, but the wet stuff cam come later, this is pretty and the sun is shining as well. Which means it probably won't last long, at least in the trees. I got snow down my collar as I was taking the pictures. This is the loom shop this morning. Pretty, huh? To those of you in the region of the ice storms, I hope you are thawing and getting back to normal. I am getting ready to head to the post office with the last of the looms that we hope will arrive for Christmas. We'll do our best for any orders that come in after today, but can't promise. Randy's out shoveling the drive now and Cori is chasing snowballs! Merry, Merry! posted @ 10:58 AM PST [link] |
