Snow!

We're alive! My part of NJ (right outside of Philadelphia) didn't get hit too terribly hard. Good enough for me to fold up my tent and call it a weekend. :D

He shoveled off the front porch and a path to the cars. You can see sort of how high the snow is, but that's mostly the result of drifting--we probably got about 6"-8" so far.

OMG, such gorgeous eyes she has! And the snow is much prettier than our present deluge, though I'm pretty grateful this isn't freezing.

Y'all stay warm and safe!

I love the snow the first few days, until it starts to turn to grey sludge and mud. Then it's just sad. But the first day is always magical, as long as you're looking at it from inside the house, cozy and snug with hot chocolate and something good to read and nothing else to do... :D :D :D

Why, thank you, she has eyes just like her daddy.

WOW! That's a lot of snow. I hope you're enjoying it from the warmth of being tucked up inside.

It was! I meant to spend the day writing but I just goofed off instead. ;)

I saw it on the news, that's crazy amounts of snow you're having.

[identity profile] silsbee329.livejournal.com 2016-01-23 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Woah! I have to say that I am glad it's not coming here this time around. Upstate New York deserved a break. ;D

Glad it wasn't too bad for you guys! <3

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2016-01-24 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
I bet you were glad! :D

The plows have been pretty steady, so the roads aren't horribly bad--still, I'm not about to drive anywhere for the next few days. ;D

Love photo of your daughter! Hope you don't have to drive anywhere this weekend.

Thank you!! And you can bet I'll be snug in this house like a bug!

Wow, look at those pretty eyes!!!

It JUST started blowing and snowing here.

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2016-01-24 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
How is it now? Here it's slowed down but the wind is tossing snow everywhere!

I know, right, her and her daddy, both! :)

Gee, I was just happy that we got enough to really cover the grass. And that enough of it was snow instead of ice that the power stayed on (she says, dooming the entire park to the driving antics of some idiot who'll manage to run over a transformer while showing off his Big Damn Truck and knock power out for a week).

There's something about snow and ice that really gets the blood of total fools to pumping, drives them to heights of idiocy!

[identity profile] rosy5000.livejournal.com 2016-01-23 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I didn't even try to measure what we had. It had to be at least 10-12 inches. First major snowfall of winter and I'm more than ready for spring. :P

Unfortunately, I'm part of the unpaid labor.

AWWWWWWWWWWW!! Poor Baby! You and BG can bond over stories of servitude, lol!

Stay safe & warm ♥

Your beloved child is beautiful :)

Woaah, I don't think I've ever seen that much snow!

Stay safe and warm!

Thank, trust me, I did! :D

It wasn't as bad as it could have been, but of course, I say that from the comfort of my toasty warm couch....

:D

I was just about to pm you to see if you were okay.

Seeing the snow always makes me miss it a little. Just a little.

Stay warm.

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2016-01-24 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
We've had little brown-outs from time to tie, but the winds died so I'm thinking we dodged that bullet! *G*

Snow is something that you can only miss a little--pretty in pics and a horrible pain in the ass otherwise!

*HUUUUUUUUUUUGGS* Thanks for worrying about me! ♥

Thank you! ♥
