All Day Snowflakes

It snowed all day today. No, I mean it. It started after I got up for my 1:30am pee and it's still snowing now. It's slacked off the last hour or so but tiny flakes are still floating around out there. A couple of my neighbors went out to clear their driveways around noon but this is not a job I'm doing twice. I'll go out with the snowblower tomorrow, preferably after the plow has come by. Thursday's wind took care of any snow that had stuck around on top of the feeders so I give you this afternoon's photo of the snow on top of the feeders. Yes, it's that deep.

 

No birds showed up today (that I saw) but the acrobatic squirrel was on the suet nuggets feeder and another couple of squirrels were tag-teaming the cob corn. I don't know why their little paws don't freeze from scampering through the snow.

 

I decided to go back into Half Hour of Pencil Power and drew this Ninja Banana. Silly, isn't it? But I liked drawing it and I like the way it turned out. I know this guy teaches kids to draw but I like the way he teaches and I can usually draw what he says to draw.

 

After that I picked up Henri the Wooble Frog and finished him. I was glad that I had the password so I could call up the instructional videos on my phone because I didn't know how to do some of the stuff they said to do. Closing the bottom was the easy part. Crocheting the little eyes and then sewing them onto the body was not so easy but I managed with only a little swearing and teeth grinding. Next week I'll drop him off at Zambaldi so that his owner can pick him up the next time she's in town.

 

In honor of Snowstorm Brenda I had a nice big bowl of steamy Easy Egg Drop Soup for supper along with a few Savoritz wheat crackers from Aldi. Those are my favorite crackers.

 

I was forced to fold a basket of laundry today because I was down to my last pair of clean socks. There are no photos.

I spent an hour or so adding some little things to the 3rd Seaview book which meant that the version I sent to the Kindle the other day was outdated. So I deleted that one and sent the new one. I solemnly swear that I won't change anything again until after I read it on the Kindle and make notes. Cross my heart. I also went through a few more chapters of Better Than Mom's in preparation for uploading it to Kindle Create, adding an invitation to read my other titles at the back, and republishing it. 

I am not looking forward to having to go out and move all that snow tomorrow but I'll manage. As long as it isn't too windy so the snow blows back in my face half the time.
