One of the few weather predictions we seem to be able to count on... when they say it's going to snow, they are always right. They haven't missed yet.

Yesterday the prediction was between 8 and 16 inches.  We got about 8.

I have been sitting in front of my computer working most of the day while my husband has been outside trying to move snow.  (yes working - we had an office computer meltdown yesterday - I've spent nearly all day helping to get things fixed up and running again for all the jobs that need doing this weekend).

I did take a break and take a few pictures, mostly from inside the house because I've been too lazy to put my boots and coat on.

Out my front door, this is what I see



Looks pretty nice doesn't it.  Then there's the back deck where we have a cute little bistro table and chairs...



Sorry, the window is a bit dirty.  Didn't realize that until I uploaded the pic. 

This one is my view out the office door.  All those tree limbs are getting hard to see.



Well, I did step outside my side door because I knew you'd all want to see my grill being buried under the snow.



But since they are predicting at least 8 more inches of snow tonight, my husband not only cleaned off the driveway and the sidewalks, he also worked on "shoveling" the roof.  Much easier than letting it go and dealing with the effects of ice dams later.



Mostly snow is just lots of work. It can be very pretty though.



Now it's time to make some hot tea, snuggle under a blanket and watch a bit of television.  Tomorrow it will be my turn to do some shoveling.

2 I haven't seen snow in person in so long, I might not recognize it if it frostbit me on the arse.
But yours is very pretty.... calm and quiet. Never underestimate a good excuse for hot beverages and snuggling under a warm blanket.

3 Your grill looks like a little space ship!  It looks like its going to take off or that little men should pop out of it!

4 E - shoveling is good exercise

LeeAnn - I know you'd remember it as soon as you stepped outside.  LOL.

Bou - LOL, yeah I know that's why I get a kick out of taking pictures of it.
