Outside My Window ~ 2.02.14
Outside my window…is blue skies and sunshine as well as moderate temperatures. We are currently sitting at 55°F with an expected high of 60°F today. Loving it! In the span of a week we had two snow storms with a total accumulation of approximately 9 inches. The first snow came the evening of January 21st with a total accumulation of around 3 1/2 inches. The temperature stayed cold enough for that snow to hang around until last Monday until we finally warmed up enough for all the snow to melt. Last Tuesday another front and coastal storm moved in and this time we received a total accumulation of 5 1/2 inches. There is still quite a bit of snow laying about even though we were 50 degrees or better yesterday and had quite a rain storm last night. I think today and the 60°F will probably finish off much of what is left however it has nowhere to go. The ground is heavily saturated. I haven’t uttered these words out loud yet but it is official, I’m growing weary of winter. We have had more than I would like to have 12°F but feels like 4°F mornings. I won’t go as far as to say I want summer back because I’m not ready for the heat and humidity yet, but I wouldn’t mind it a bit warmer for a while.
I am thinking…I am going to have the change the theme I’m using for my photography web site before I can get the sell feature to work. I’m not real happy about it and definitely not looking forward to the task. That in itself could be the reason I’m putting it off. Sigh.
I am glad…that it is only one more week ~ one more ~ before The Walking Dead is back!! I’m not a fan of long mid-season breaks or even the short ones. I must have missed the memo but I don’t understand the logic behind it unless it is to drive the viewers nuts with anticipation. I did enjoy the season for AHS Coven. I watched the finale this past Wednesday ~ I still feel bad for Misty Day. I’m sad to see that one go but definitely interested in what is to come for season 4.
From my kitchen…a fairly tasty recipe I came across not too long ago ~ Rice Broccoli Chicken Cheese. When you add the rice, adjust the amount to suit your preference. Some people may like a lot, some not so much, you decide. 🙂
I am hearing…the ticking of my many clocks ~ the Zombie Bowl on television otherwise known as the early episodes of The Walking Dead ~ the dog letting a squirrel know he is not welcome in our backyard.
A recap of last week…well, not so much last week. Recent posts included a winter composite and the free February desktop calendar.
Plans for the week include…working from home on Tuesday ~ hanging the new living room curtains ~ working on a Valentine’s Day composite.
One of life’s little pleasures…taking time for yourself once in a while.
From my camera…snow photos I thought you might like….
