I sit in my favorite chair, with my favorite quilt and laptop on my lap. Rick, Kyndal and I are watching Secretariat .. the first of seven movies we rented today. Outside my window are birds, hundreds of birds, taking their turn at the many bird feeders we have set up in our backyard. The red cardinals are the most beautiful things I have ever seen against a backdrop of white.
And there is more white.
And more white to come.
We had a record-breaking 21" of snow in Owasso on Tuesday. And today, we are supposed to get 4-6" more. We can't hardly believe it.
Our shoveled driveway is now covered again. On our way home from getting the boys' haircut, we couldn't see the road. We missed four days of school this week. My early prediction is that we will not have school all next week either. We stopped by the grocery store. Still no milk.
It's astonishing.
And I love it.
** Update: It's Saturday morning and the sun is shining brightly. It's not supposed to get above freezing today (I don't think), but maybe the sun will cause a slight melt so we can at least get our driveway cleared again. All total we think we got about 2-3" of snow last night. And another system is coming in tomorrow and another on Wednesday. The record was set in 1958 of 25.8" FOR THE YEAR! We will certainly beat that this year, if we haven't already.
yep we are getting snow tomorrow and wednesday too. They might have school since they have been out so much either way they have to make up atleast 6 days. Like my sister told her boy you'd much rather get out early when its nice and warm then be snowbound. He finally agreed with her when he found out my oldest gets out before him in may :)
