Aww, C'mon Now!

I think there are a lot of us who feel this way.

Am tired of wearing my puffer coat, and how a hat smushes my hair.

Of having to wrap a scarf around my face in order to breath when outside.

Our snow shovels have rounded edges now, from being worn away on the sidewalks and driveway.

Explosions and Quakes

Continuing on a theme:

Just a few more days to February!!!

The temps are well below average here, and a fair amount of snow too.

We also have both exploding trees (the sap expands in the cold, shredding the tree), and frost quakes or cryoseisms, (frozen ground cracks during rapid temperature drops, often with loud booms, and vibrations through the earth).

Eastside Cats' antique home has huge icicles hanging in a few locations, and these are not good news.

Weatherguessers give us at least another seven days in the bitter cold, yet we have it better than those who have lost power or had property destroyed by falling branches/trees due to ice, broken water mains flooding houses and streets, and ice jams on rivers, pushing water into more housing.

Stay safe out there, folks, and these sillies are just yucks to get us through it.

LAST DAY!

The Vernal Equinox occurs at 5:01 am EDT, 9:01 am GMT, 2:01 am PDT

IT'S THE LAST DAY OF WINTER!!!!

Why yes, yes I do!

Has an Ides of March vibe.

Wakie wakie wakie!
It's HERE...
SPRING!

Now, this isn't our first rodeo...we know that Old Man Winter fights back, and there may still be cold temperatures, storms, and maybe even some...*shudder*...snow.

But we can now face these trials with a 'fiddle-dee-dee' attitude, as they just won't last much longer.

Well, at least, this is how I manage to get through until I can finally put my puffer coat into the closet for six to eight months.

Snow Cats

Yep, it's been cold and snowy for so many of us.

How 'bout a few cutie snow kitties?

Rather romantic pieces, despite the truth of the bitter cold, strong winds, and nasty, wet snow storms.

Hope y'all are doing okay.

And just think; January only has a week to go!

Ease

It's PO'Monday!

Celestial Paddy O'Malley, at breakfast in early February, 2017.

Bright sunshine with snow on the ground often indicates that it's bitterly cold, yet seeing that golden orb helps ease the disquieting thoughts that Winter is going to last FURRVER!

But who cared, when there was a PO'M to love on?

❤️ 😻 🌞

Still moaning...

A continued declaration for what I think of Winter, for your amusement:

Tough It Out

No matter what that rodent from Punxsutawney decides today, Winter cannot disappear fast enough for some of us! 

A few memes cadged from social media, copied here for your entertainment:

I finished 27 books, and continue to work remotely at home, so there are some nice things about January, but I'm glad it's February...c'mon Spring!

Winter Caturday

Our hearts go out to those in the Southern USA, who continue to struggle after the frigid temps, and resulting breakdown of electricity and water systems.

Here in the Midwest, we put on our boots, wrap a scarf or two around our faces, and shovel ourselves out.

Winter can be pretty, especially when the sun sparkles off newly fallen snow.

Don't get me wrong; I will not grieve for Old Man Winter for a millisecond, once warm temps begin again.

While Walking Through The 'Hood One Day...

...I was taken by surprise, by a sweet kitty napping in the garden that I was passing by!

I didn't want to wake her up, but I was astounded to see her asleep in the sunshine!

I've seen this kitty around this area before, so I know she has an owner.

Good thing, because last night we had a severe snow storm, with high winds, and dangerously dropping temperatures.

The Polar Vortex will be hanging around for days and days, so yesterday...when I spied this sweet sleeping kitty...was the last non-snow day we will have for awhile.

Brrrrrrr!

Stay warm, my friends!

Monday O'Malley

We had sunshine yesterday...before another snowstorm.

However, the temperatures remain above the freezing point, so lots has already melted away.
