how to pass the snow days away...

Day two of snow higher than a rhinoceros. 
Yesterday was Sunday, so that's ok. I managed to clear up enough to enjoy day 2-today of snowed in.
I've been threatening to do needle felting every storm day. Today was it!
(oh, I don't drink soda pop, but Propeller Ginger Beer, pictured int he back,  is my most favourite. It's made by Propeller Brewing Co. in Halifax. It's so gingery that it makes me sneeze and burns in my ears. I love it. 
If my husband ever gets a free tank at his work, Boxing Rock Brewing Co., 
he promises me to make a batch of Ginger Beer soda.)
 Neve made a dog from Wool Toys and Friends
 She made it a little bigger and added spots. The original was to fit in a pocket of a felt picture.
 I had some fun making this here frog from Wool Buddies
 with big googley eyes
 and polka spots
 I also finished off my socks! Hurrah! Spent time with my boy watching Harry Potter #4
 Here is a sad picture of our wood pile. It's only the middle of February people!
We don't have enough wood.
We do have oil heat, so not a huge panic, just huge $$
 All of our 5 doors were snowed in. And they open outward.
We just left this one for now. But I must shovel it out before it freezes. 
Don't want to have to deal with all of that melt off.
 Look way in the back to the left of the pole. There is a green handled pitch fork in the ground there.
See it? no? under the snow.
 And under the snow is all of the potential food for the deer. Poor things.
They have been in our yards eating the bark off the trees and my holly bush. grr.
There haven't been any tracks since the storm, so I don't know what they are eating these past few days.
yes, a lot of snow. We are all fine.
 At least we didn't have all the rain and flooding in Halifax 
or power outages in the Annapolis Valley area. 
I do hope there is school tomorrow though. 
I have to work.

Ciao, 
Amanda
