It finally stopped snowing this morning and I estimate that we got at least 6 inches of snow but with the insane wind, the snowdrifts are quite high. I only took Jack for his walk once today because the cold and the wind made it practically unbearable. We did our mile loop and the wind was so bad that I started jogging back to the house with Jack and I never run; I had to stop because my knees started going so I dropped back down to my habitual brisk walk, but that wind was relentless, howling and jabbing my exposed skin with snow pins. I don’t think that Jack minded; he was miserable as well.
I took some pictures of our winter wonderland, I took them at 5:30 so it was dark but I am hoping that the lights twinkling in the windows and on the hedges will show up despite the darkness.

I just saw your 2012 Year in Review and I was not the most COMMENTS for your blog, but thats okay, I will try harder this year…stay with me ok? Love Jackie
Sweetie, don’t worry about that. It’s the quality not the quantity. I appreciate and love all of your comments. What you think means a lot to me. 😀
What were you doing up at 5:30?
I’m sorry, it wasn’t 5:30 a.m, it was 5:30 p.m or 17:30. Here in the States if you tell anyone I’ll see you at 17:00 like we do in France, they’ll think that you are off. So I’m used to saying 5:30 and let the other one figure out if it is a.m or p.m lol.
Ah!

Proper snow! I shouldn’t complain that we’ve had hardly any… but we’ve had hardly any. Just RAIN.
Proper snow yes, that needs to be shoveled and makes it much harder to walk the wee dog Jack. But I shouldn’t complain, it could be worse. 🙂
