I just broke out in song on your behalf…sing it with me… “Am I blue…Am I blue…ain’t these tears in my eyes tellin’ you…” Billie Holiday is now rolling over in her grave.
I am insanely jealous.
I live in Quebec, Canada, where this kind of snow is the norm. This year, not so much. The only decent storm we had so far (12″ or so) was before the Holidays. so far, no storm forecasted until the end of the month. BOO!
We don’t have quite that much here in Chicago- only a foot or so. Stella is much more equipped to deal with the depth than my two basset plows… I mean hounds.
Wow! Glad here in the Houston area we just have rain. But it’s that cold rain (43 degrees) that makes you want to just lie on the couch and read all day. If one could get away with that, of course. Which I sadly can’t.
Great pictures! Bossy’s house is so cute. I am jealous of the northeast, because this is my first winter in Denver, and while we have had snow, it’s nothing like what you guys have been getting!
I think at some point you just leave the lights up because it’s almost December again. I know you don’t believe me, but pretty soon you’ll all be saying, “Crap, it’s December again?”
We woke up to snow in Dallas of all things ! We do not ever get snow like this. Big white fluffy snowflakes. Of course, we are only expected to get anywhere from 3-8 inches. Right now, it’s at about 3-4 inches. They are calling this the snowiest day since 1978. (Yes, that is what they said on the news – snowiest)
We have the same here in NE Ohio and I am so sick of it. Just reading the word “daffodil” in Lisa’s comment brings me hope. Spring, we are waiting!!! (Love the house photo Bossy…looks like a Christmas card)
We have almost 3 feet of snow in western PA. Kids have been off of school all week. Have spent hours shoveling and still have more to do, with 35 people coming to the house tomorrow!
Our Christmas lights are still up, too. I thought it would be nice to put them on in the storm but my husband got all green this and green that, environment yadda, yadda, yadda.
Love the “lingering” lights and the dog. We had a little snow here in the Nation’s Capital. Just a little. They freakin’ closed the Fed Gov’t for 4+ days! Definitely a Snowpocalypse, or as they tag it on Twitter #snOMG.
Based on all your weather posts of the past I know we are nearby each other. Finally got out today. The days off have been nice but about two days ago I contemplated killing and eating the rest of my family.
My oldest sister is 4’11”, so my parents put her in every snow picture they sent me from the ‘Burgh to make the snow look even higher. The snow was up to her chest.
Your Dane is the greatest.
Am so glad to see that Bossy still has some type of festive lights still hanging outside her house. I have big snowflake lights hanging from my porch roof. Considering how I’m feeling about snow these days, I’m about to take the damned things down.
I live in Iowa. I get to see this stuff every !@#&*! winter. Not a snow fan; it only looks pretty in pictures. Love your Stella, but you know what she does to that pretty snow, don’t you?
I live in the part of the country that’s next to the country that’s desperate for snow (Vancouver BC) and lo and behold, we’re having a marvelously balmy dry-ish winter. I’m loving it, even if the Olympics folks are not!
And I’ve scaled down my Xmas lights to only 2 strands indoors. Usual goal is to have them down by Valentines but what the heck, I’m still enjoying them! Keep yours up however long you want. Make that into your next year’s Xmas card photo!

February 11, 2010 at 11:09 amWe were supposed to get slammed too… but only a dusting in MA. Somehow though your little dog makes it look like you only a had dusting too…

February 11, 2010 at 11:21 amThese gave me chills and made me reach for a blanket.
Kristina says
February 11, 2010 at 11:40 amAll I can say is “Ugh!” I’m so sick of winter!
Meg at the Members Lounge says
February 11, 2010 at 11:45 amStella looks like the second coming of Sasquatch. II believe she could easily handle a brandy casket around her sturdy neck, too!
Meg at the Members Lounge says
February 11, 2010 at 11:46 amUmm, makes that brandy cask. Clearly a casket would be slightly more difficult for her.
Stephanie Z says
February 11, 2010 at 11:56 amAll I have to say is HOLY SH..!!! I have been watching the news. I don’t envy you all having to do the big dig out.
Stay warm Bossy!

Liz tee says
February 11, 2010 at 12:26 pmGigantic Stella mocks the dusting of snow that barely covers her ankles!
teri says
February 11, 2010 at 12:29 pmbeautiful pics. Wait, is that your christmas lights still up on the house?
Debbie in GA says
February 11, 2010 at 12:32 pmWonderful winter wonderland photos! Love the blue tint. But, errrr, ummmm, is that Bossy’s Christmas wreath over the door?!
Becky says
February 11, 2010 at 12:36 pmGood gracious, Bossy. That’s a lot of snow! And I thought we got a lot…

February 11, 2010 at 3:18 pmI could have pictures of the snow at my house but that would require GOING OUTSIDE in the cold. Jammie days are the BEST!

Amy says
February 12, 2010 at 12:50 amBut looks so darn pretty!
I can say that as I am far, far away in Vancouver BC Canada where the snow has fallen maybe one day so far this winter…
If our community ever got that much snow the city would be closed down for days!
Bruce Amiata says
February 12, 2010 at 1:34 amPerfunctory? Pshaw! Heaven forfend!
You can’t mean it – especially regarding that last one.
mitzie says
February 12, 2010 at 8:49 amEh, I’m from Cleveland. Looks pretty normal to me. We do leave our Christmas lights up until the first thaw which is about mid March most years.

Elizabeth says
February 17, 2010 at 6:21 pmPoor Stella looks so cold! We only had 9 inches of snow, so I can’t complain.
