Did You Get Snow?

Posted on December 20th, 2009 by --Deb

It seems to be THE topic on the internet today–how much snow you got in the weekend’s blizzard.

It’s kind of hard to say, actually. It was kind of windy, so it’s hard to say. I mean–this is what the archway looked like this morning–snow on one side but not the other. As you know, snow doesn’t usually fall that way.

All I can really say is that we definitely had snow.

Chappy is all wistful. This is one time when we both miss having a backyard to romp in.

He did help his Grandpa shovel off his deck, though.

Luckily, I got a picture of our deck chairs beforehand.

It’s been a fairly quiet day, really. I made some granola, and have pot roast on the stove. (The house smells yummy.)

I gave this fellow a haircut, too.

Although he was all kinds of difficult when I tried to take his picture. Look at that silly face he’s making!

This is really the best I could do. Trust me, though, he looks cute.

I had wanted to get my Christmas presents wrapped today, but didn’t quite make it. I got distracted watching “Shall We Dance” on tv. You know, the 1930s musical with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, with all that wonderful music from George Gerswhin? So many great numbers, especially the one on roller skates. That Fred Astaire sure was a man ahead of his time.

    We got 19.5 inches. Some parts of the yard drifted much higher but that is the average yard height. :)

    Did we get snow? Oy! I put some crappy iphone pics on the blog but will try to take some better ones later today to show the true magnitude of the amount of white stuff at our house.

    alas, we didn’t get any, just that far too north of all the fun. I feel for those who did, as many (especially way south) don’t have the resources to handle it. Chappy looks great with hisnew haircut, funny faces and all!
