I know what you mean about never catching up. The weekends just aren't long enough. That must have seemed like a real bonus to get those extra days!Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11269887100694066103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-27288355840193507222009-12-11T20:50:44.969-06:002009-12-11T20:50:44.969-06:00My feet are freezing, looking at all that snow!

The roads weren't too bad, but it sure is cold! <br /><br />Thanks for the info on the mums, MMGD.<br /><br /><br />Nitu, you are funny.Corner Gardener Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631500918579405664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-4282755209008546312009-12-10T11:46:25.960-06:002009-12-10T11:46:25.960-06:00I think you're supposed to leave the spent flo...I think you're supposed to leave the spent flowers on the Mum. I know you're not supposed to cut them back in fall/winter. I didn't cut mine and I still had a bloom before all the wet snow squished everything flat. You may have had more snow than here, but you had a better snow by the looks of it. The Statice and the Coneflower look lovely in the snow. It's so weird to see the green leaves on the Clematis with snow on them. One of mine is like that too.

I relate to so many things in this post including the the feeling of always being behind in things. <br /><br />A sunny day w/blue skies after a fresh snowfall is so pretty and makes me feel like a kid again. <br /><br />Luv the photo of the statice giving up some color in spite of the harsh weather. <br /><br />Sounds like you live in a good neighborhood where people help each other out when needed.donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06950476333013336671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-24992265357074963132009-12-09T23:49:25.048-06:002009-12-09T23:49:25.048-06:00Sue your posts are scaring me.

But we share your pain because we only have the thermostat turned up to 58 so far, and did that only this week. We'll probably turn it up to 65 as winter wears on, but for now, we're toughing it out, trying to keep our carbon footprint low.

Now the cold is arriving and there will be NO SNOW! But I am remembering living in a part of the world that had your big snows...and while it can be fun and getting a day off is the best~~It's hard work to remove, drive around and keep warm!

I don't think it ever gets quite that cold here.<br />The snow really does look pretty, as long as you can stay home and enjoy it.

We aren't just getting blinding snow, the temperature is falling fast and the roads are getting slippery.
