Spring is coming- right?

The following picture is of
The Currituck sound- it is frozen
So are my water pipes.
It is 19 degrees at 9 am
And it may get to 35 by 3 pm- maybe.
Both our works are closed again,
So Joseph will probably get 5 hours on
Saturday for the whole week.
The road in front of my house still is not
Plowed, and probably won't be-
They are still working on the bigger roads
Going toward Elizabeth city,
And the bigger subsections.
I read what you put about Amy wanting to pull
Will- she could probably have drummed up
Big business around here- the kids are all out
Playing in the snow( Hayden, Addison, Deuce,Malachi,
Daycare kids all getting pics put on Facebook)
But we have no hills for sledding
Spring is coming, right?

Not a car in sight

Snow-6, rednecks-0
(I say this because last week
When we got 2 inches,
There was much stupidity going on
With teenagers taking flat pieces
Of wood, metal and tying a rope
Behind a car and riding down the road)

And just a few more

Backyard this time

A little bit of snow

More pics

Ok, this morning was a little different

Yeah, we got 6+ inches-
The drifts are over a foot
And life stops. I don't know
If it will start again until Friday
It's 11 am, and the snow plow
Still has not appeared anywhere near here
Pictures follow of the ROAD and
My front yard- yeah,
It's a little different

Looking at colors

I have been playing with
With the second picture
To try to give you some color ideas
The frame colors pick up the bottom
Little lavender thingy
Do any of the shades catch your eye?

The Color of Things...

So here are the colors Amy has chosen

Also, I got an alert from Sugar Sync , saying that I could no longer access the files
on your account. That is not a huge issue for me, but I was curious as to what prompted the change?

Dalek Christmas tree (Dr. Who reference)
Ok, so it is a LOOSE interpretation

And I leave you with this

And then this

Our sermon for today in church
Was all about- It's not about your
Agenda, but about what God
Has for you, and is trying to do
For you: and the scripture was
2 Kings 6:14-23
(Notice he fed and gave the enemy
Water and let them go, even though
He knew there was a risk they
Would return to fight against them again.)

So interesting

This was my devotion
For this morning,
Which made me say "Cool!"
And since your translation for
Luke 10 says a few things
Are needed and really only one,
I was thinking maybe the few things
Are "compassion, mercy,right action,
And humility (4th line commentary)
And the one only thing is God's mercy
Which saves us through "the miraculous
Work God is doing in the hearts of people
(6th line commentary)

Nobody undestands me...

Debbie said that she needed a desk.
If you had ever seen her house, you might better understand why I say that she needs everything she brings in to be bright, and lively, and happy.
She painted her dining room yellow- a true sunshine yellow (I even brought over paint chips)- and it just looked dull beige (I think Mom and Dad's bedroom has the same syndrome).
So I painted a cheap roll top desk as follows:




I asked Alaina , Michael , and Genevieve for feedback, and got the EXACT same answer;
It is VERY green.
Suggestions?
