Snow Way

Today was a rare day, a snow-all-day day. Oh yes. On top of the most wonderful snow we already had, it started snowing late yesterday evening. It was snowing when we woke up and it went on all day, although it has stopped now. There is something unbelievably magical about walking in deep snow whilst it is also falling from the sky.
At work, we found a squirrel stuffed into a chickadee nesting box, clearly not a claustrophobe.

Yesterday, Nicole Kidman was under fire from critics for blowing into a didgeridoo. I'm not even sure why anyone can claim it's her fault, since the TV show she was appearing on staged the whole sorry spectacle.
The only thing to do in these circumstances in my opinion is to go out and get preggers straight away, to show other women that it's a load of almost literal, bollocks. What does surprise me however, is that both Cruise and Kidman have managed to have children since splitting up. So what was all that adoption stuff about then?

In the cold weather, it is useful to know that it turns out to be a myth that most of our bodyheat is lost through the noddle. I had wondered about this I must say. I am no hat wearer, but I am quite a warm person. Now at least I don't feel as though I should wear a hat.

Anyway, the real snow - apparently - hasn't yet hit, seems we're getting more on Sunday.

I'm delighted for you and a little bit jealous!

Yeah, I find it suspicious that they were barren as a couple but fertile as ferrets apart.
Methinks all is not as it appears.

Sunday has come and gone and I don my hat and the snow is melting this am.


ah, Oregon in the valley. Always working in the boomerang effect.

It is suppose to snow more later. I hope that is AFTER this melting snow has cleared. I don't want to drive on ice. grr

Sleepy - I would feel exactly that way were it t'other way round.

Kat - No, I agree, the driving on ice is far from agreeable. The driving in our city is possibly the worst in North America to start with, put some ice in the mix and it's not too clever.

This explains Tom and Katie's pregnancy.

My second favourite conspiracy theory about that couple - my fave is that she faked running the New York marathon. The evidence is pretty good...

Haha, I love it Gail! Sadly for the poor kiddie, she seems to look horribly like ferret-faced Cruise.
