Table Scene

Usually mornings, one of the first things I do, after I check on the coffee, is look out the window and get a read on the temperature. It's impossible these days though with all the snow accumulation. Note behind Molly, walking on the table, and out the window, the snow bank is pretty high. It covers the outside thermometer. I'm thinking positive though. The woodstove, cranking in the kitchen, is keeping it warm and toasty, and the small painting, of the Wells' marshes by Yelena under the mirror, has got me thinking July.
By the way, you don't want to know what's falling outside these windows right now.
Yesterday the temperature was warm about 35°F.
Snow was melting a tad.
Today... only about 4 inches added.
Do the math.

  1. Same temperature here. No snow no cat, just the office. Not cosy.

    And you've won something....

  2. The room with the cat, the lovely round oak table, and the warmth from the stove must be cozy and serene despite the pile of snow outside. Hope there isn't much flooding in the spring in your area.

  3. It does look cozy on the inside but a glimpse out that window gives me a bit of a shiver.

  5. B- Re. your question about our plans: I put a rather lengthy description of the Writer's group on my post yesterday because of requests for an explanation. You'll find it among the comments, if you are interested.

  9. Or the other way to deal with the cold and snow is flee. That's what we've done. Today's predicted high in San Diego is 71 degrees with sunshine. Works for me.

  10. I admire your good attitude and perseverance! Who needs a thermometer anyway when you can just check the computer? BTW, the horses here are made by a variety of people. But I think the "fad," if it is a fad, is wearing a little thin.

  14. Keep the stove stoked and life's good. That and a good cup of coffee and you've got a good start to the day. We can talk about cabin fever some other time.

  15. You sure have had your share of snow! We have a stove in our kitchen too, and it makes winter much more comfortable.

  17. Time to curl up with a book at the fireplace

  18. Well, on checking the temp, that's why heaven gave us smart phones.

    I've never experienced anything close to this amount of show. You probably think of it just as part of the annual cycle. If it happened here the whole city would freak out.

  19. Don't you just hate it when the snow is above the window sills?

  20. When yiu can see through the window , it's summer and spring . When you can't see through the window because there's too much snow , you know it's winter . Easy math ! :o)
