Too Cold for Balcony


Wind chill is at -11 so even though it is sunny out, it is too cold for Molly to sit on the balcony.  But she will stare wistfully out the window.


But sunshine and snow are two of my favorite things!

How to Get Rid of Snow.


Sweep stairs.  Sic dog on snow pile.

Duck Duck Goose!

Took Molly for a long walk around the lake the other day.  There was a large flock of geese (with a few ducks) on the hill above the walkway where Molly loves to run.  I wondered how the geese and Molly would react to each other.  As soon as we climbed to the hill, the geese walked or flew down to icy lake and skated over the ice to swim in the water.  Molly enjoyed watching them for a few seconds before investigating other smells.  I was left to dodge goose dung on the ground everywhere. 

Why'd you leave?  

Special skate time for webbed footed creatures only!

6 old Patricia Wrede books (including a paper copy of Sorcery & Cecilia that I'm giving Pat)
4 C.L.Wilson fantasy novels (Lord of the Fading Lands series)
2 Gail Carrier Parasol Protectorate novels (I just read Soulless and it was so much better than I remembered!)
5 Linnea Sinclair novels (woohoo - space opera romance!)
2 Kristin Cashore novels (Graceling series)

I still have some credit yet - will have to go back in a few months.  OH TOO BAD

Love Virginia Mountains!

So soothing...

Above was the view from Molly's and my car ride - walk excursion - Just a couple miles from my house.   I love all the jet streams in the air.  I love seeing the mountains so clearly.  I wish the housing plans had taken this view into consideration so more people could see it.
