winter, winter go away...jackie wants to go and play

When you have to rub a dryer sheet on your hair every morning to keep the static from making you look like the bride of Frankenstein......it is January in Ohio.....this does seem to be an extremely long winter. Living way off the road in a wooded area it is usually very quiet in the winter, but Wednesday morning, not so much. During the night we had an ice storm that blanketed everything. Stepping out on the porch with my camera, the sound of trees creaking and falling in the woods followed by ice sliding off the roof and weighed down pine branches. Downright noisy....so after a few quick clicks I retreated to the warm house and snuggled with my cats. This is the 3rd week I have been stranded inside, my poor hubby is walking out the lane to get in the car and head off to drive all day at work (did i mention i am married to the milkman?) Seems like this is a perfect time to get a cup of coffee and get busy on those valentines for the swap....I hear glitter calling me.
