In like a Lion...out like a lamb?

Hey everyone...

Well here it is the 2nd of March and well, we finally have winter here in VA!!

This is the view of my front porch. We have about 4 inches on the porch alone! :)











This is the view from my front door to the street! I love the way snow looks and how pretty it is. I hate to drive in it but it sure is pretty to watch.








This is female Cardinal in one of my trees. She was chirping and making all kinds of noise, probably yelling at her kids to come inside! :)

My office is closed today so I will be taking full advantage of the extra knitting time. I have been busy working on several projects and am in the process of finishing up some other projects.

If you are in the I-95 corridor, take care and keep warm, this storm was supposed to hit the majority of the area.

Until later,

Hugs
Debi :)

2009.....

Hey everyone,

Wow, I, along with everyone else, can hardly believe that 2008 is over and 2009 has come...in retrospect 2008 was a year to be remembered in many ways, new beginnings, endings, starting over...just to name a few...

Since I was negligent in posting during the holidays, I will catch everyone up now...Here is our tree, it was very full and wonderful. All the kids loved our Christmas. No one complained, and even the dogs got presents and Christmas dinner.

For our office, we went to a very nice steak house for dinner and we had "shrimp" appetizers...does this look like an appetizer to you?? This was definitely the biggest shrimp I had ever seen...!!
(sorry the picture is blurry)
Then, driving home on Tuesday before Christmas, the traffic was HORRIBLE!!! Everyone was in such a bad mood. I wasn't I had Christmas music blaring on my radio and yes, I was taking pictures of the traffic... in it's own way, it was rather pretty......what do you think?
This picture was taken in my car as I sat in traffic. That night, it took me over 2.5 hours to get home. Not great thing, but it's ok.


So, now we are at the first day of 2009....what will this year bring to us? We have a chance for more changes in this year..we can always look to each new year as a new beginning...I hope that whatever your goals, dreams or ambitions, that 2009 treats you well...may the new year bring you all peace and good well.

Hugs,
Debi :)
