It’s January 24th and we’ve had it pretty good so far this winter. Local folks are all smilin’ and saying “We’ll take it, thank you very much”. Compared to last winter, this one’s already shorter. Except for a bitter -30 snap early in January, which made us complain, we really can’t complain… we have grass showing on our front lawn here in Saint John! However, the weather man said this week “Plug in your shovels, we’ve got 10-15 cm of snow coming mixed with rain and freezing rain”… Nice (not). It’s already starting to snow lightly at 2:30 on this Saturday afternoon and Monica and I are snuggled happily in our comfy chairs in the living room enjoying some refreshments and social media. Facebook and WordPress (smiley face) and Mon said “How about a fire log?” Now, there’s a great idea!!
How totally excellent to stay home this weekend and enjoy the house, hobbies and each other. A morning of chores (laundry, supervising Roomba and painting furniture) plus some stained glass productivity lead to an afternoon of relaxation and blogging. I’m working on a glass project that is really exciting for me … but I’m not ready to post anything just yet. Let’s call it a work in progress.
Meanwhile, Monica is surfing hotels in Dublin for this fall. I hate to wish time away but I can hardly wait for September 28th!
Snow is falling pretty good now. It’s gray outside and cheerfully warm inside. Makes me think of the beautiful sunset we had a couple of nights ago.
And that leads me to dreaming of warm nights walking on the beach with my Baby.
