13f... snow settled a few inches...crispy crust layer deep enough to bang shins/thighs hard...smash and slide type trudging. Still life landscape with streamlined mystery mounds that disguise what lies beneath.
Moon lit night enhanced the mystery with odd shadow visitations. Snow atop railings appear as narrow little white walls that suddenly curl like high surf in stop action frames bent and frozen by the wind. Bright high light on top with deep blue shadow in the pipe...banzai miniature...still no Disney Frozen© toons dancing and singing...don’t tell Kathleen of the Gazebo that.
It sounds as if it would be perfect, as long as you never had to go outside.
And good morning. 29 here, but we have 55 predicted for this afternoon, and 60 tomorrow.
ahh... well, outside is where I want to be...moon light... cross country skis...still night air, pure magic to me. Too banged up to do long jaunts anymore.
Gazebo.
That sounds like me, too. And that's just from wrassling with the snow-thrower.
SQUEE!!!
I overslept this morning and I HATE when I do that! DARN!
Anyway, it’s morning, and that strangely coincides with laundry day. *sigh*
I want my own place...
Central Park got 26.8 inches of snow, 0.1 inches below it’s current record.
Outer Boroughs still report some unplowed streets but I live near the mayor so we had no problems. :-D
It’s 40 degrees out with a wind chill of 36, and I’m not looking forward to standing in the cold, waiting for Robert of the Keys to come and open the door. *foosh*
The letter I wrote to my grandson yesterday had to be opened and re-printed. I woke up in the middle of the night with the awful thought that I didn’t sign the letter. So I had to sign it this morning. Then I found some typsos so I just re-did it all.
My bad.
I’m watching some news clips on the snow storm, and I don’t envy New Yorkers at ALL!
I’m glad you’re safe and are able to be “normal” once again.
I just saw a photo on Facebook of a man named Michael LeVaughn Robinson, of Chicago IL. Anyone want to guess who that is in real life?
Jim Thompson?
There is no “normal” here. The subways were full and slow this morning but at least they ran.
I don’t love wearing boots and carrying shoes but some of the corners were still heavily blocked with snow - with slush underneath where it can’t get to the storm drains yet. Boots are a must.
Jackie Robinson?
Good luck with laundry! We’ve been to the gym. Next we’ll go by the library, and then pick Tom up at school.
Michelle Obama.
If it’s photoshopped, they did a darn good job! LOL!
Now I get it!
I’m done with the laundry, and my back is killing me.
I had to mail a package today, and I was thinking on the way to the post orifice how good a small Arby’s would taste. The postal rates went up and I lacked $2.30 of having enough for an Arby’s. It’s over a week till payday... :o[
I just finished a crumpet, and I’m working on some Earl Grey, and then I will go to the ramada and see who’s winning. (I can still taste that Arby’s that I didn’t get to buy...)
It probably doesn’t help any, but I’ve been looking for a good reason to get up to the Chick-fil-A in Herald Square since it opened. I can just never be free when I could get to the area.
I’m waiting for the Chick-fil-A to open here. Yummers!
But yeah, you’re right: It didn’t help. ;o]
Well, gang, I’m sorry, but the nausea is driving me nuts, and I can’t seem to keep my eyelids from slamming shut. I’d really like to stay and chat, but it’s not gonna happen.
I’m try to be on a little later.
