Nothing is impossible, the word itself says 'I'm possible'! --Audrey Hepburn

Oy, today makes 6 months that we have had snow!? WTH!

This was last Sunday.


I was too depressed to take a picture this morning...of the blizzard!
It got to 2 degrees today......seriously!

I'm not even a farmer, and it's getting me down!
I know, we can't do anything about the weather!

Anyhoo, here was the 'had to have item' I got at last Saturdays Silent Auction.

 
My mom said: "Is that going in the 'seldom used appliance cupboard'?"
Me; "Actually I've been wanting one of these!"
One of the kids made off with the blender, and why can't I mix drinks & stuff with this!?
Oh well, if I don't like it, one of the kids will get it!
 
This past week, I went out for supper Wednesday with the gf's.
Sorted & delivered Avon.
Booked tickets to Victoria for Vanessa & I.
A Princess House party.
Last night I went to the Quilt Show, out for Supper, and then to the movie.
 
I got this picture of a moose hiding in the forest.
 
 
These swans were in a puddle....
 


 
 
These poor geese were snow shoeing!
 
 
 
 
Next week I'm getting my hair done, it's past due!
Out for supper, the Volunteer Appreciation, supper with the gf's,
and I'm doing Happy Hour at the OFH next Friday!
 
It took me all week to make this Birthday card!
I kept trying different side steps til I found one that worked!
 

 
I also had a needy week!
Those clouds were the 'need' part!
 
I've got some amazing stuff coming from Quilled Creations!
Their shipping is atrocious, but I've always been happy with what I receive!
 
Better go, hopefully the weather shapes up!
Hope you're all well!
Talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!

Unbelievable to have snow for so long Gail. We are still having hard frosts at night, but the sun has eventually turned up for the off hour.

Love your bright and happy Birthday card.

Well even if we have snow (again) your card certainly is springy and bound to make the recipient happy. It is great. Love the moose hiding in the trees. The swans are gorgeous.
Busy week again for you. When is the trip planned for. I think you said but I forgot.

I'm going to use your saying when I want something!
'It's a needy week' Now that sounds better than 'I want!'

SIX MONTHS??!!!!!! Time for you to move to southwestern Ontario! Very sweet card, despite the depressing weather.

Sandy said...

Bbbrrr!!!! It certainly looks pretty chilly, we had our fire on for the first time last night and it is only Autumn here. It poured Saturday night (luckily after the outdoor wedding reception) and most of yesterday which meant we couldn't pack up the hired tents as they were too wet!!! Your photos are lovely as is your wonderful card, great image and love all the flowers too.
Hugs,
Sandy

Good God! After seeing/reading about your snow, I'll not complain about our weather again. I'd be out of my mind if I lived up there! Those swans are beautiful=great shot. Cute stair step too. And with all that snow, I'd be using that blender for major alcoholic drink mixing for sure! Hugs, Curt

OMG! Not envying your snow one bit and for some reason we are getting snow tomorrow, which is almost unheard of for this time of year here. Going down to freezing tonight too. Gardens should be planted by now and the farmers have their summer crops sown, but not this year.. Good old Mother Nature working her magic and keeping everyone on their toes. They call it Global Warming......LOL

The step card is so springy and I love how you've cut out the image, those clouds, and beautiful flowers. Love your puppy sympathy card too!

Stay well, keep busy, and enjoy your new drink mixer. Bet it makes tasty Daiquiri's! Have a great week! "Hugs" Carol

I can see how you would be less than impressed with your weather. It has been very nice here and I have been busy getting the yard into shape. Still have boxes sitting in my craft room. But I do have some cards to make so the first rainy day, I will be down there stamping up a storm.
I love your card. It is so cute and feminine.

What a wonderful birthday card! And a cute moose trying to stay "under cover" :-) I do hope that the snow will soon be gone for good... like this coming weekend! Keeping my fingers crossed for you - and sending sunshine and warm temperatures your way.
