Throw back Thursday of a personal nature. This is a publicity shot for Mme. Damberg's ballet recital circa 1959+/-. I would have been ten.

The last two days things have been dripping, melting, running down streets and gutters...all in preparation for the snow/rain expected/forecast for Saturday and Sunday.

Still, two days of faux-spring? Totally worth it!

Wow. Thank you Governor!
Very proud to announce the Department of Health will now process all requests to change gender designation on birth certificates within three business days. Previously, there was as much as a 10 month wait.

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all."

Yesterday, while cold, was really sunny and, if in the Lee of a building, the sun could be felt. Sadly this photo is out of date as we have returned to steady grey with continuous flurries.

The sun is out so, despite the biting wind and frigid temperatures, it cheers me. Also, it is not snowing. Spent the afternoon clearing out "stuff" and now have NO books on the floor. Temporary I am sure.

Balmy today at -3° and the sun may appear! Offspring returned from Fla., last night so a week of taking turns grandcat sitting is at an end. I can now resume my usual pattern of knitting at home!

Back from groceries and making preparations for the possible snow coming our way. This involves an overnight bag in case we get 20-30cms overnight. After feeding daughter's cat I'll stay over so she won't have to wait for breakfast while we get dug out tomorrow morning!

A quick stop at the dry goods fabric store for two basic items seems to have morphed into this... I can only assume magic of some sort.
