Wow, it's white out there. "Bird TV" aka the sunflower feeder, thistle sock and suet feeders are a busy place this morning. Schroedie's sitting there on her perch at nose level to the window sill, watching intently, eyes and ears flicking in time with the birds; harried fluttering.

It's so cute.

It's SO white out there! The sleet we had moistened everything so that the snow stuck to everything. There's a stack of 3" of snow in top of the seed feeder; I've never seen that happen so this last to be exceptionally wet snow. A branch fell from the tree right out front which provides an additional perch for them and there are tiny birdie foot prints all over my front porch. When I go to refill the feeders today, which I am certain I will have to do, I'm tempted to sprinkle some on the porch railing so they have some additional perches. There's a sheet of ice over *everything*, well, actually under this layer and on top of the first snow that fell last week. Very glad I parked my car in the basement/garage. There is NO traffic on my road out front; I see one set of tire tracks.

Penny's still in bed; so cute that I took pictures. I've taken lots of pictures of the birds and of Schroedie stealtf-watching them and maybe today I'll get them moved to the computer and edited. It's a lazy day but I need to sew since I got stood up for my $300 delivery yesterday. I was concerned for her driving, true, since she lives in Manhattan but I'm still annoyed that she didn't even bother to text or call me to tell me she wasn't coming on her way out of town. I'll be glad to have this jacket done. Working with someone where the fittings are each a month apart becomes wearing after awhile. I just want this damned thing done.

So I'm gonna go eat toasted cinnamon raisin oatmeal almond bread (used some of the almond flour that Honey Dawson gave me awhile back and it is really good) and drink some coffee with whipped cream in it since Aldi didn't have any half and half. I may even make some of my oniony-hashbrowns from the potatoes out in the laundry chill-room.

It's so QUIET, no traffic from the highway. Oh, except for the gun shot I heard about 8am, making me worry for the neighborhood deer. Yes, I like this neighborhood but I have long suspected that there are a couple of Bubba Redneck neighbors living on large lots who really think they live in the country.

It'll be a good day to get stuff done around here...to stave off the cabin fever.

Slighly envious; but enjoy your winter's beautified day!

I feel sorry for people who've lost power due to the heavy, wet snow downing their lines. Me, I'm enjoying it and all the birds seem to be as well.
