The Beast

It's Funny Friday

by Prudence

This is the conversion between Mom and Dad a few weeks ago (AFTER our first big snowstorm).

M - are you going to finally look for a snowblower?

D - yes, I've been looking and I think I've found what I want.

M - okay, are you going to order it?

D - I did yesterday.

M - how long before it gets here?

D - it's coming freight from Ohio.

M - freight?

D - yes, it's 250 lbs.

M - huh (thinking, what the heck did he buy)

 Four days later......

D - the snowblower is being delivered today.

M - yippee.

D - I will take your SUV down the driveway and meet the driver.

M - why?

D - I told you, it weighs 250 lbs. and I am going to have to tow the crate up with the trailer hitch.

M - crate?

D - yes, it's 250 lbs.

M thinking "so how big can a snowblower be, maybe the size of our lawnmower?"

and so, The Beast is now a member of the family, I give you

THE BEAST
(and yes it has headlights and HEATED handles, I asked about a CD player and cup warmer for hot chocolate - I just got "the look", hey they were honest questions (o:

Happy Friday.  I have changed things around a bit on my Blog, it's still a work in progress though.
Before I start look at what came in the mail for me

from Miss Charlotte over at

Roma Land Woodcrafts
a sweet little note, chocolate (I didn't share) a hand painted teddy magnet and a bee-u-tee-ful business card.  Oh, Miss Charlotte thank you so much.  Miss Charlotte has a wonderful, handsome puppy too, Charcoal.....well, maybe a smidge larger than "puppy".  And we are in love with him, he looks just like our Jessie.

Another Prezzie?
OMM (oh my mohair), I won a giveaway over at
Stitching Time Boutique

Thank you, Miss Jackie, I love my little Bunny Girl
************
And more....look what Miss Tracy over at
Hatties Attic

sent to me, what a fantastic furbow, and pinwheel and card. Oh, and the little teddy ornie will go on my Christmas tree, it's all bear decorations.  Thank you so much, Miss Tracy.
What a fantastic prezzie week.

 Early or Late?  Ah ha, that is the question.  I'm referring to Mom's snowmen girls-  it's coming up on April, the daffodils are blooming, we have our hummingbird feeder all ready for the little beauties to return from down south and Mexico and Mom is thinking SNOWGIRLS.  Here's what I'm talkin' 'bout.....

GLITZY SNOW-GIRLS
this will just have to wait, I am having way too much fun gettin' prezzies in the mail.

Hi Guys,

Just a quick note, I'm playing and having so much fun but I wanted to say

"Hi"
More snow...

 Molly Brown & Jessie
 "Snow Play"

It's almost March, yippee, just a little closer to spring.  Can't wait to see the spring bulbs M&D planted last fall.  The daffodils bloom everywhere, even on the side of the roads, big, bee-u-tee-ful clumps of daffs all over the place.  When they are in bloom I will take some pictures.
Heaps of Hugs, see you next week.

Wow, it's been a cold week up here in the mountains.  Mom and I were outside (briefly) and saw two little daffodils poking up, now we are worried that they will be okay.  And the Pussy Willows are just so perky, it's amazing that in February they can bud.  Mom told me that when she was little her parents had a huge plant and when the fuzzy's bloomed she thought that if she petted one and talked to it it would become a kitten.  Just leavin' that one alone, but I bet she was cute taking care of that one fuzzy.
The weather this week:
Wednesday afternoon:

Wednesday morning:

Little Pussy Willow encased in ice

Poor little Daffodils

 This is our newest baby pine, and he is covered in ice too.
And then...SNOW

View from the back porch.  When I stepped out to take the picture I frightened the birds.

Tuesday Morning 2/17 - ice storm, that's not snow but ice.

Heaps of Hugs,
Prudence
