Mombie – a bit of everything

Entirely too much snow

This is the view from my upstairs window.

A photo of a snowy suburban cul-de-sac taken from an upstairs window.
I took a photo through the window so we could get some perspective on the snow. We’ve already done a lot of snow-clearing but there’s a lot of damp, heavy snow everywhere. image description: a photo taken from my upstairs window showing our cul-de-sac with all kinds of snow everywhere. The plow scrapes a lot of our snow into a pile in the centre of the circle and there are mounds of snow on everyone’s lawns. It’s still snowing/raining so the sky is dull and everything has a light dusting of snow as well as the big piles everywhere. It’s really wintery out there.

This is not the most snow we have ever had from one storm but it has been a lot and it has been going on for two days.

The schools have been closed and the buses are off the roads, and I feel lucky that I didn’t have a lot of stuff going on over the last few days. (No heart wrenching cancellation decisions for me!)

I haven’t quite been able to just putter around but it has been pretty low key since no outside schedules were affecting my plans.

Just a doodle

Of course I drew a heart on Valentine’s Day!

Image description: a drawing of a dark pink heart decorated with thin pink lines going one way and thin purple lines going the other way overlapping each other. the heart is surrounded by small, solid purple circles connected by lines so the circles almost look like beads on a necklace.

Getting ready for a storm

The weather is supposed to be awful here for the next few days and my brain has INSISTED on making sure that I have everything I need for anything I might want to do for the next couple of days.

Not in an obsessive, anxious sort of way but in an IMAGINE THE POSSIBILITIES sort of way.

After all, one wouldn’t want to have a burning need to make soup, organize a closet, or do an art project and not have the stuff you need to do it!

Brains are weird.

Much better day

Today was still a bit jumbled but it felt better overall.

And it was nice enough to walk without gloves on.

I’d like a bunch of days like this in a row, please.
