The Great Escape

February 11, 2014

 Today is the day I get back out in the world!

We actual can drive through this slush mess.

Kids heading back off to school for the first time since last Wednesday I believe.

Live is getting back to normal;

The great escape is taking place.

Back into the real world of work and fun!

 It still wasn't easy pulling this cart through the snow and slush this morning.

It was carried in spots the snow was still so thick.

Am so grateful for my cart of tools to create beauty and smiles.

Even if I had to pull and tug through the snow and slush!

 Awe yes we made it to the shop.

Now to get this day started.

Which didn't go as well as I had hoped.

But God turned it around and made it a successful day.

I even got my hair done today!

 Coming home we find the driveway has even melted more and is almost clear of all snow and slush!

So happy to see all of it go away.

It is fun for a short time.

But after a day or two its time to move on.

 Yesterdays ice rink is almost back to the beautiful green yard.

We still have some piles and patches of snow to deal with.

But the ice crystals are gone.

 I think my tree trunk is smiling!
His claws tore up all those icicles and his roots drank up all the fluid as it melted away.

Making for one full and happy tree.

As I'm sure he was happy to see this storm pass and move on.

his branches are no longer heavy from the weight of the snow and ice.

 My walk to the mail box hadn't changed much up there at all.

I still had to mash through snow up to my calf's.

Thank goodness there was a nice patch of dry to get my feet steady to head back through to home.

February 11, 2014

 This is my path home through the snow from the mail boxes.

And it wasn't an easy trip through it to get to them nor to head back home.

I think it will take a day or two more to melt it all.

But we have escaped!
It was a good day over all for the first day back out in the world.

So another day has come to a close and its time to sign off with love.
Tomorrow we will have new adventures.
Thank you for coming and joining the fun,
Don't forget to leave a comment!

Does your town shut down in snow storms? Do you shut down in a storm?
If so what do you do while your life is on hold?

Day 11~ Entrance

Some of the many entrances into my life.

My front door that leads to my home which provides me with loving shelter

The entryway that collects most of my life from work and the outside world

Patio door the entrance to sunshine fun and relaxing fun

Hubby's door of rest and refreshing

The box that I collect all of  my mail which usually is bills; but...sometimes I find money and lots of mail for occupant. Very poplar person

The door to the salon at the nursing home which brings smiles of beauty and love

And the door to my transportation of many journeys
