Snow, snow and still more snow, arghhh

Yet another snow storm is headed our way. I am getting tired of snow. This morning, I had to scrape the ice off the driveway and sidewalk, and then put salt down. Well, I didn't have any salt left over, so I have just used the world's most expensive salt on our icy spots. I am using up my dead sea bath salts!! I have a huge pail full of them, and as I have stopped making bath salts, I thought I could use them this way. I even have some scented ones I can use up. And I should still have loads left over for my tub too!

The robins have been back in huge flocks, but I am afraid they are not being quite honest with everyone. They don't all fly south here, I have found them in December hunkered down in the woods at the end of our street. I guess they have ventured out of there now though, so that has to be a sign of something, right???

And the sun has seemed so much warmer and more intense, despite the fact it has been so cold. It even sort of smells different outside. (And it isn't the lavender from the bath salts!)

The best thing - the clocks go ahead this weekend, I am so excited about that! More light is a good thing!! I know it won't be long before I am complaining about how hot it is, but I have decided to NEVER complain about that again!!!
