...and it's SNOWING still!
i'm loving all the snow, but loving more
the slightly milder temperatures.
i rejoice that the temp is above zero
it means
eyeballs don't feel like they're freezing into your brain.

i'm trying to finish some obligations i'd taken on
without realizing how consuming this school year would be.

it's been mostly fun having more snow this winter
and finding how lovely one of my neighbors has been
plowing me out several times
without charge
and making my life so much easier.
*thank*you*fred*
a snow day or delayed start to school,
and in a week will be winter break.
maybe i will get to work on
the books i owe folks
and the two editions i have planned.
V - snow days - just so different to our sun days. The sky was so clear and the sun so intense today that the solar hot water boiled and vented. Glad you find the gentler snow days as quiet times to catch up. Go well. B
ReplyDeleteit's been a long time since I ate an icicle, thanks Velma & great review of Susan's beautiful book!
ReplyDeletelove all of your writing! yay. yes, a bit too much snow here, but the icicles are spectacular.
ReplyDeletebarry, this prolonged snowy weather is testing us a bit, it's like old times.
ReplyDeletemc, thanks about the review, icicles are one of winter's treats!
aimee, you're the victim of so much of my incoherent writing!
Thank goodness for kindly neighbors! The view is delightful. May your snowday prove fruitful AND relaxing (important element in the artists life)
ReplyDeletemichelle, i have to stay home today anyway, freezing rain in the air but the temp is 5. go figure!
ReplyDeleteIts quite a winter. And, I love the Spirit Books. happy snowy days.
ReplyDeletevalerie, i'm glad you know the spirit books.
ReplyDeleteSo, enjoyed your snow & review, and your words "a haphazard mind teased by the energies of teenagers." ( for me it's ten year olds).
ReplyDeleteoh my, all that snow. it does look beautiful but I'm happy I'm not shoveling it. wonderful book review, it looks very special.
ReplyDeletei think 10 year olds are wonderfully pre-pubescent and therefore trying but still possess brains...
ReplyDeletejean, i might be able to convince the snow gods to make a special trip...
Glad that you have survived all the snow. We are under a similar deluge on the west coast, except it is in the liquid form. We can hardly complain!
ReplyDeleteheather, i'm sure you need lots of delicious rain.
ReplyDeletevelma, you somehow manage to take the cold out of snow pictures and give them a halo of warm beauty.
