A Little Update For You
First of all, the snow all melted away. Then it started to snow again. So much so that the speech tourney was cut short and someone had to go get The Child. Which The Spouse did and I was very grateful for driving in the snow is not something I do.
By the time they returned home, the roads were covered and we probably had about 3 inches of accumulation.
At which point my camera died. (Like, I think really dead, never to take another picture again and not because of the battery because I charged it last night).
But that's ok, for now, because I've been busy making snowflakes at that cool site that I'm not going to link to because it's right over there in my sidebar and you can just go play yourself. And then the coolest thing happened because I got a comment, on my last post (if you want to go see) from Bad Alice that she'd found one of my snowflakes. How randomly awesome is that? Because there are a lot of snowflakes on that site. About 412 of 'em are mine.
Then Hat and I sat on speaker phones and made snowflakes together for a while. That was fun.
Here's a picture of one of my favorite of my snowflakes. 
It's a snow queen. Can you tell?
It's a snow queen. Can you tell?The Child is gone for the night so I'm thinking this would be a good time to go snuggle up with The Spouse in front of the fire and revel in our winter wonderland. Or, possibly, reheat some fajitas.

Crap!..my snowflake looks like a cowpie on a snowy day...
Oh, surely not. I'll bet it's perfectly lovely. Besides, have you ever seen a cowpie covered with snow? Almost a thing of beauty.
I'm still amazed that I ran across a Lorraine snowflake completely by accident, without even knowing that you had visited the site or anything. Wow. I started out at EmailSanta.com, in case anyone wants to send their kiddies there. DramaQueen asked Santa if she could see him on Christmas Eve because, "I have some questions I need to ask you in person."
I'm still reeling from that, too. And I just got another email from a friend in Wisconsin who found one of my flakes. It's crazy, I tell ya...
And please, I beg of you, Bad Alice, please tell us more should you learn what DQ wants to inquire of Himself.
Ahh yes, it always made me laugh how Seattle reacts to snow...
hello
i enjoyed your work
i prefer to actually cut my snowflakes though
its not too hard just need scissors ans some copier bond paper
and of course the trick
Blogger ate my comment. Stooopid.
Anyway, hi! It's 5am and I am awake. Two guesses as to what I'm doing?
Hint: it rhymes with baking blowflakes.
Gilman, yeah, the "oh Lord, there's an inch of snow, close down everything!" thing is quite amusing. Of course, we do have all those hills...adds to the fun.
Anon, ah, there's the rub...I've never been very good at the old fashioned sort of snowflake making...the computerized version is more forgiving and I have less confetti at the end of a session.
Oh, my sparkly Hat...
We saw your snow falling!!!!! We were thinking we were going to be spending the night in Seattle, but those airport genies brought out the de-icers and moved that slush right out of the way!!!
Rosie! You know you coulda stayed with us, right? More to the point, why didn't you call? Sheesh, it takes me like 15 minutes to get to the airport! Don't you ever come this close without calling again, do you hear me? Hi. Love you.
Teen Demon wanted to drive to work in the snow today. She gets off work at like 11 tonight. When there could be ice. She seems to be under the impression that knowing how to drive in snow is genetic, like she doesn't need to actually learn. She was not happy to have an instructor in the passenger seat today. Yeah, like that was going to stop me. Youth today...
pretty snowflake!
Snowflakes are like Nature's Rorschach tests. At least I assume that's why they all look like my parents having sex.
I read your last line like this- "snuggle with the spouse and reveal our winter wonderland". Ah-HA!
You're still in therapy, right Lex?
Bwahahahah, Greeny!
Oh, and Cowbell, the eternal optimism of youth...it's a wonder any of us make it to adulthood.
Snow is gone and now we have crappy rain for the next four months. Ah, winter in Seattle. Dashing through the rain, in a one-horse open SUV, over the fields of Starbucks, guzzling all the way, ha ha ha.
ok cool, something else for me to busy myself with on this long ass day. SNOWFLAKES. hooray
All these blogs full of winter tales and snuggling while the snow piles up are making me weeeeepy. I'm going to have to go skiing if you start talking about hot chocolate - you know, the kind YOU probably make.
Kimberly Ann, I'm just crossing my fingers that the wind storms they're predicting aren't too bad. I'm having flashbacks to the Big Blow and it isn't pretty.
Monica, put the scissors down!
It's all just sloshy and floody now, Booda. No cause for jealousy there. A nip of brandy in your cocoa?
