Snorth-east Snohio

Cute boots that cover more of my legs than my regular ones, because I need that, since the snow is more than knee high in some places.



Warning: do not take photos from a moving car...



Pretty Icicles hanging from my house.



Sorry Cedric, you didn't stand a chance (poor poor garden gnome).

Update on my life

First off, I'd like to say that I haven't been very personal lately because I've been rather distracted by the blizzarding that has been happening in my neck of the woods, my stress level, and the fact that I have a lot to think about right now. No snow days to report (although that would have been a God sent because David has a lot of work to do outside the office (everyone's computers seem to break all at once) and when he is stressed I am stressed) but I have about 2 inches accumulated on my car since this morning after I cleaned about 3 inches off of it before driving to work adding to the about 12 inches we got this weekend. The roads are somewhat treacherous and I am not looking forward to driving home tonight, I wish I could just apprehate there.

Great news! For the first time in my life I won something! Yay! And it's a BOOK! Double yay!

The ladies over at Edifying and Edgy held a contest (see here) and I won it! (see here)

More news: I was once again pretending to be a photographer. If you'd like to see my Valentines week entry for I heart Faces please follow this link. If you'd like to see other peoples entries follow this one.

(I obviously don't want you to continue reading this since I keep sending you on multiple adventures. I apologise.)

My "project of love" as it will hence forth be known is underway. David and I decided not to do gifts for valentines day, which is awesome since I never know what to give a guy on V-Day anyways (except maybe a little of my V... tee he, oops this is a G-Rated site) and I have no dollars to spare in the name of love. So, I decided to make him some fun little paper crafts, and since he is apparently allergic to my blog (and he only really knows about this one) I'm posting my intentions and completions.

I finished this little guy last night. He is Dracula, or my "robot-doing" version of such. I made him! He is a paper craft I got from this site (this is the download I printed), I now realize I glued his hands on wrong... oops. Whatever, mine is just as cute.

I will also be making him a Zombie and Frankenstein, all from the same site, because nothing says "I love you" like the undead.

I should make that into a shirt.

Curious Week 205

1) Tell about a snowball fight you had.

Recently it snowed, a lot. I love snow when it first happens, it's so beautiful and white. I hate it when it gets all grey and dirty, but when it first falls I can't get over how beautiful it is. It snowed the other day, and my boyfriend and I went somewhere. When we got home, on our way into the house, I picked up some snow and flung it at him. I missed, the snow wasn't packed tightly enough. But It was a fun mini snowball fight.

2) Where is the best hiding place you know of?

Between my mattress and my box spring. As long as it's thin you can hide it there, and more likely than that no one will ever think to look.

3) What extracurricular activities did you do while at school?

Latin club

Show Choir

Marching Band

Swim Team

Madrigal Choir

Musical (all 4 years)

Junior class play

Senior class play

Drama club

4) Show and Tell. What comes to mind first when you see this picture? Or, tell a story if it reminds you of one.

It reminds me of the millions of times I had friends over as a kid and we all slept in the living room. It reminds me of how in the morning I was always the first one awake (morning person from the start) and I would be quiet and wait for someone else to wake up so I wasn't alone in someone else's house.

I NEED MORE BOOKS

Winter is officially here ( I know, it's been months since I've even seen the sun) but My winter reading addiction is in full swing, and I need more to devour before my head caves in.


I was a bad girl and spent $45 of my hard earned dollars on Barnes and Nobel today (this is after my 10% off coupon code) because I had a $25 dollar gift card...


Bad girl


So, after those books we purchased, and let me just say that they were all necessities, I now have a few more to add to my must acquire list.

Ruined: A Novel by Paula Morris



Freak Show by James St. James






The Dark Divine by Bree Despain





If you're in a giving mood you should give me one (or all) of these books.

I'm probably stopping at the library sometime soon. I can't afford my addiction...
