Are We Having Fun Yet???

And it just keeps on snowing...  I love it!

Perfect weather for watching the Winter Olympic Games.  Though my whole body aches after watching some of those thrill seekers!  I think I cracked a few ribs just watching the moguls....and oh my aching back...and knees...  Time to hit the hot tub!

This is the kind of snow storm I remember as a kid.  Of course, when you're all of 7 years old, 2 feet of snow is a mountain.  And now, outside with some snow drifts and piles well over 15 feet, well, I just have to go out and giggle in it!  It's great fun!

  

I feel sad for those who have never experienced snow!  I mean this is just beautiful!

Of course, I didn't have to go out and drive in it or plow.  But I don't mind shoveling...for a few minutes anyway.  It's good exercise, and the air is clean and very crisp, for sure!

I just love my little fine feathered friends!

Grow Your Blog Party Post

The After Christmas tree adorned outside with treats.

 

1.  I am "extremely" HAPPY that it is Friday...mostly because I can link up here to Random 5 with Nancy and the gang...but also, because it has been one crazy, crazy week at work!

 

2.  We are having a heat wave here in New York...the balmy 30's above freezing!  Must be because of the outdoor Super Bowl game.  I would love to see it snow, snow, snow for the game!  Just like the good old days in Steeler country!

 

3.  Our ukulele club is growing, with new members attending each month.  At our meeting next week, we are playing "Where Have All The Flowers Gone" in tribute to folk singer Pete Seeger who passed away this week at the age of 94.

 

4.  I am finishing up one more book for the "Art Journal" Hop/Swap that our Arty Tea Party started earlier in the year.  Then I will pass it on to the next person on the list to add her "talents".

 

5. I, too, am enjoying the Grow Your Blog Party that began last Saturday.  Click the link above on the sidebar to see all the participants.  So many blogs...and so many new friends.

Aloha...thanks for stopping by! 

 

 

Let It Snow Man...

I spy an imposter...

1.  OK, so here we are and the weatherman says...7 degrees, but it feels like  - 3... YES IT DOES!

2.  I can only knit in the cold months.  It's weird but the first hot sunny day of May and the yarn and needles get put away.

Just a few goodies to keep us warm...

 And these are "tribbles" I knit from a pattern I found here by Cathy.

A green dish scrubbie for Nina and one for moi.

3.  I am gearing up for the Grow Your Blog Party with Vicki at 2 Bags Full starting late tonite....

4.  I have experienced some wonderful synchronicity moments just this week!  Yes, I am tuned in to the proper frequency for sure!

5.   I belong to a group of TALENTED CHICS... we call ourselves the Arty Tea Party.  And some of the gals will be introduced at the Grow Your Blog Party along with their talents. 

ENJOY YOUR FRIDAY and MORE RANDOMNESS WITH NANCY AT A Rural Journal!!!

Vanilla Ice Cream

For Random 5 Friday, I was prompted to write about Ice Cream.

Well lo and behold, I forgot about my daughter's fave ice cream...Vanilla.

Enjoy part of her last recital before heading off to college.
