I can't take it anymore. It's been a week since I left the house. Well, left my house in a gas powered vehicle, I can still get out and walk next door and go out to get the mail. The stores are closing early, if they are opening at all.This snow is unbelievable. When I go outside, the snow is up to my knees, making walking just a little difficult. This morning I went outside to knock the snow off the trees in the dogs' yard (so the branches don't break off on their little heads) and when I came in my legs were tingling and they stayed red for at leas
t an hour.I'm afraid to open the gas bill, because I'm sure it is going to be astronomical and I don't want to be tempted to turn off the heat. I'm tired of leaving every faucet dripping at night and starting the washing machine right before I go to bed, so the pipes don't freeze.

It looks much the same here in CT. Over the weekend, it snowed continuously for 3 days. I like your blog!
It looks the same here in Ontario, Canada. Snow everywhere, but today the temperatures are rising above zero and it is supposed to change to rain!!! I came across your blog from the gathering wool list.
Happy Holidays.
You won't have any worries about not having a white Christmas. When I lived in Canada I loved seeing the Christmas lights in the snow. After babysitting I refused rides home because I loved the beauty and peacefulness of freshly fallen snow. What am I doing in Florida, 80 F expected Christmas Day? I really miss the snow. I guess knee-hi socks or leg warmers are on your to knit list. Happy White Christmas from another gathering wool friend quilter_dawn (quilterdawn on Ravelry)
Yes, same thing in Maine. You need SNOWSHOES! I have them. We love getting out on the trail in the winter, it's pretty remote out here and even though it's a snowmobile trail, we hardly ever see or hear snowmobiles.
Besides, how would I get to the compost pile if I didn't have snowshoes?
