The possibilities are endless. I can't choose.

clean the closet?
bake bread?
finish the apron I have started?
get out a jigsaw puzzle?
make Mom that hat I promised her?
exercise?
take a nap?
surf the net till my butt gets numb?
watch an old movie?
take a long hot bath?

guess I'll close my eyes and go eenie miney moe. :p

(as long as the power stays on) :/

I just noticed that Miranda is on teevee exercising! Luckily, I was carrying out the garbage at that moment. I can't keep track of her broadcast times now that they aren't daily . . .

I did say something about yoga on here the other day, tho'. Nearly a promise. I'd better get to that - I may be freezing up without it!

No crafting - fortunately/unfortunately. DW seems a little tired of my cookin'. Besides, she just stuffed the fridge with leftovers just like I've stuffed the freezer with pumpkin . . .

I've been meaning to watch one of my favorite movies "Hook." It's got that loser captain's name but you know, it's about the boy who never grows up :p! Of course, I'll probably doze off.

Snow Mountain!!?

Mount St. Helen and a Snow Mountain? Hmmm Over 7,000 feet! That's really getting up there for the Coast Range, Marshall!

Mount St. Helen ~ snicker ~. Probably a Mount Killamantoday down there too so I'd better shut up.

Well,so far I have done almost nothing. Went out to thaw out the chicken water twice. They are as mad as wet hens (!) and won't come out of the house. Go figure. I measured the snow in the flat part of the yard about an hour ago. 11 inches. All we get when the local news is on, is the junior members of the "news team" standing out on some road talking about how much snow has fallen, freezing their lips off. They can barely talk. Supposed to snow for 4 more hours.
I announced to DH that I am going to make cookies, so now I'm gonna have to do that. I talked myself out of making bread because I would eat it all.
Have been working on this apron rather desultorily. (is that a word?) I have to get it done because someone ordered it.
I saw on Dr OZ that if you need to get energized, stand up and flap your arms like a chicken for a minute (No bent elbows) and you will feel much more energetic. So I guess I'll go flap my arms for a while when I get done perusing the forum for the 5th time today. Or maybe I'll take a nap. Yawn......It's so nice and quiet here with the snow covered road. No traffic noise. Yawn......I can't remember if seed savers was one of the catalogs I ordered or not. I hope it was. ...Yawn.......

Not snowed in yet - but it's sure coming down good!

I use the online catalogs - mailing seeds to be faster that way, more varieties too. No garden porn if the power gos out though...
