Things are starting to melt, just in time for another wave of snowy shenanigans on Saturday. Fun times!

Snow and Paint
Yuck. It’s pretty enough, but it’s cold and it’s a pain in the ass to drive in and I’m ready for spring. Which is coming, by the way. I know, because it was still reasonably light out last night at 6pm, despite the fact that it was overcast. Hello, longer days! I have missed you!
Also, we are painting again!
Or, at least, working on paintings we started two years ago. Jeebus. And in the process, I think I’ve discovered that I’m allergic to Daniel Smith paints. I don’t know why, because the ingredients can’t possibly be very different from those of other paints, but other paints do not make me sneeze and sniffle or my nose itch. Very weird.
And More Snow
I didn’t measure, but everything at the top of the fence is new.
More Snow
Harriet is not amused. It’s so deep in the back yard that she can’t even squat when she pees. And it’s still coming down. The grounds crew shoveled the walks this morning, but now there’s another inch or so of snow.
Lamp Post
I noticed yesterday morning that there were icicles hanging from the lamp posts behind the library, but I was already late for work, so I didn’t try getting a photo. This morning, I was early.

Laundry Day
Towel
Laundry is almost finished, which means it’s almost time for an adult beverage. I’d really rather have a glass of wine, but I didn’t think to get any when I was out on Friday, and we have Sunday blue laws, so I can’t buy any today. Damn!
Snow Fairy
We actually ended up getting 3-4 inches of snow. More than I thought we’d get. And they’ve plowed our parking lot, which is sort of miraculous.

I’m wondering where all that snow we were supposed to get went. It seems to have turned into a mostly rain event, though we are starting to get a little bit of snow build-up, now that it’s dark and the temperature has dropped. Somehow I doubt that we’re going to get anywhere near the 14 inches that people at work were talking about yesterday. That just doesn’t happen here. A lot of people must have thought it would, because when I went to the grocery store this morning, there were entire shelves picked clean. That could be as much due to the Super Bow(e)l as the weather, though.
Sesame Street, “Loaf of Bread, a container of milk, and a stick of butter”
This wasn’t taken today, but it’s pretty much how Harriet spent the afternoon. She does not approve of rain, sleet, or snow. I love the way her ear is propped up by the couch.
