With an Alberta Clipper on it's way in, and the wind howling, and blowing snow every which way, it was a grand day to stay inside---meaing no work for me! Thursday afternoon held a long enough drive home through the snow packed roads, and white out conditions, that there was no way I was going back out on those roads---I wished to spare my life thank you very much!!!
A day at home, in all its glory, allowed me many extra hours of sleep, a long hot soak in the tub, multiple cups of tea, and an extra day with my sister---Thursday night I hadd a surprise note from my mother telling me that Julia had decided to come home for the weekend! How estatic was I? Well I was pretty darn excited. I even went out and shoveled the drive-way. That's A LOT of snow removal, let me tell you!
As the storm quieted in mid-afternoon (only to restore itself to full strength, come evening) we had a little visitor on our window sill.
The rest of our day, was filled good food, good family fellowship, and a sister bonding time of shoveling more snow---all to get Darryl safely up our driveway.
The afternoon ended with a beautiful winter sky, as the sunset, and the snow clouds came in off the lake ( I do wish that building wasn't there so I could show you the full beauty of the sunset).
