Our snow storm didn't amount to much, praise the Lord, so that's one positive thing anyway. It was like a "snow sandwich" when I shoveled yesterday morning.... there was an ice layer next to the ground, then snow on top of that, then an ice layer on the very top of that. I don't think I've ever shoveled that heavy of snow before. Yikes. I only shovel the path out to the birdfeeders, then a nice big area at the base of the feeders, and then a path to the woods, which I line with sunflower seeds for the squirrels. I usually just have to push my shovel and that's it but this time I pushed the shovel about 2 ft. and then had to lift the snow because it was too heavy to just push out of the way. Hubby uses the snow blower for the driveway. Try to stay warm and snuggly indoors. Spring is right around the corner... I hope! ~Andrea xoxo The Feminine Energyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02145843258211481300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-2779464986069712612021-01-27T22:01:01.245-06:002021-01-27T22:01:01.245-06:00The cold is blasting in here tonight and on throug...The cold is blasting in here tonight and on through the weekend.

I read this book about farm life circa 1930's and forward. Ben grew up not far from my farm and I read this book years before I moved here. My first accidental visit to this area made me love it. Then I found out that the book I'd read was about this land around me. I had fallen in love with the land in a book and then ended up there years later.<br />Anyway. <br />Just a thought.<br />Val Ewinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11773318159420863765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-41364209483805800082021-01-27T08:24:31.448-06:002021-01-27T08:24:31.448-06:00So very cold with wind chill warnings--good time t...So very cold with wind chill warnings--good time to take long naps. <br />What a sweetie pie to let you sleep longer. :)Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-22859339682304463312021-01-27T07:55:28.368-06:002021-01-27T07:55:28.368-06:00It was cold here too & we had pork chops for s...It was cold here too & we had pork chops for supper cooked in green beans.

We had snow here yesterday, and lots of it. I was snowed in - driveway filled to capacity, thanks to the snow plow, and drifts, and thanks to the wind. All totaled we hd about 10 inches. So thankful for my neighbor who snowblowed my sidewalk and part of the entrance to our driveway so hubby could at least get the car off the street in order to clear the driveway when he got home from work. My neighbor is retired and must have been bored as he did my other neighbors sidewalk and driveway also. Sure hope we don't get hit like this again. Stay warm my friend.linda mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203742811516417039noreply@blogger.com
