Snow Day!

Hey Y'all!
If you don't know I LOVE SNOW!
Well it snowed here yesterday; an entire 2" so southeast Virginia is shut down.
 I know, I know all you snow bunnies out there are laughing hysterically and are shaking your heads.
We rarely get snow in this area, last year not a flake fell.
So when it does snow here, everyone rushes to the grocery store to stock up and the state police are swamped with fender benders and wrecks. It is ridiculous, but that is how we roll down here...ha ha ha
case in point:

 This was yesterday on I-64 which is the main Interstate here, this is just one of almost 200 accidents in our area yesterday.
Photo taken by my sweet friend and twinnie  Buffy Long, I swiped it from her facebook page :)
This was taken yesterday here in Franklin where we got 2.7 inches.
My silly pup Cody, who HATES rain, but loves to play in the snow.
He went out about 15 times last night, silly dog.
The view from my front porch at noon today.
I love it!


Ok so here is the silliest part, by Wednesday it will be 68 degrees!
I know a lot of you are now doubled over in laughter...teehee
ahhh life in the south!

    I love snow too. But I love it best watching from inside the house.... :)
    Ohio weather is just the same. Today we have snow and by Monday it will be 50 degrees. Enjoy it while it lasts!

    Oh my, look at all that snow!!! It is very rare for us to have snow and when we do it barely covers the ground. Enjoying temps in the 70's here on the Texas coast. Loved your pictures, they made me feel like it is winter! lol

    Living in the North East we don't care to much for that 4 letter word..some of us drive better than others and traffic is always a mess..hope everyone in the fender benders walked away unharmed. Thanks for stopping by and commenting..that was mighty neighborly! Enjoy the weekend..

    Hi Jenny!
    You know I'm Way North East, AND people here act the same way! If there is a weather report that we might get 1 snowflake, the food store and the Walmart and any home improvement store is MOBBED!!! The driving isn't much better here either!!
    Sorry I didn't know you were gone! But, I'm glad you are back!!

    Glad to see you out (blogging). Weather sure makes us do crazy things, doesn't it? But snow? That's a nice change of pace. We use to get ice storms in the winter -but not so much any more. Which, for the most part, is fine. Cute pup. Nice photos! (of the snow, not the wreck, ha.)
    Glad to see you're feeling better. (Those cupcakes in the previous post look sooooo good. Yum).
    Hugs! Jenn

    Oh, I keep wishing for snow now that we live in the mountains, but to drive in it...I don't think I could. Rain scares me! I'd have to stay home from work! :)

Hey Y'all! Sorry to have been away so long again. I won't go into details, but it has been a bit of an adventure here. I think  things are settling down (fingers crossed) So how are ya? I have another give away for ya! A few weeks ago I was given the opportunity to try and review a box of Woolzies Dryer Balls. Here is a bit about Woolzies from their website Photo from their Facebook page  Woolzies are pure handmade New Zealand wool dryer balls that soften your laundry naturally without any of the chemicals of conventional fabric softeners.

They also help reduce static and wrinkles. Use Woolzies to snuggle up with naturally downy soft laundry that's completely free of harmful chemicals.  Woolzies are also hypo-allergenic and totally safe for people with wool sensitivities as...

Merry Christmas Y'all. Yes I say Merry Christmas! I keep Christ in  Christmas because it matters to me. I was at a craft show recently and at one of the booth's I wished the vendor a Merry Christmas, he said Thank You and then said "I don't say anything anymore, you never know what people believe and I don't want to offend anyone" OK I get that, he is a businessman....however;  I replied...."I say Merry Christmas because it is what I believe" he said huh... I have never thought of it that way before... I work for the "worlds largest retailer" and I say Merry Christmas all season long, In all of the 23 years I have worked in retail, no one has ever said "don't say that to me" actually most people are kind of surprised to hear it if I judge by the look on their faces and most reply Merry Christmas to you too. So try it on for size, the next time you are out, wish the people in your path a Merry Christmas, I bet it will make...
