Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!

It's afternoon and we have several of inches of snow on the ground already. We're supposed to get more accumulation throughout tonight and on into tomorrow.

Richard helps me feed the birds.

some cute cat photos

(british accent): "Cat. Do you hear me cat? Get off the computer! The Daleks are coming'
This is Tilly sleeping on my laptop while I'm trying to work.
David Tennant as Doctor Who is in the background (thus the British accent).

Mooommm...I don't want to have my picture taken!

Is today over yet?

Christmas Cactus!

My Christmas Cactus is finally in bloom!!! To give you some back story on the Christmas Cactus, my mom gave me this as a housewarming gift when we moved in. It spent some time upstairs in the kitchen, only to get watered too much by me and often unceremoniously dumped by Libby. I moved it to the garage in the hopes that it would survive.

It has done so wonderfully since, on a high shelf next to one of the garage windows. It's not in a very fancy pot because, well, it lives in the garage.

This is the first time it has ever bloomed :-)

To give further backstory on the Christmas Cactus (I think it needs a name), I believe this plant is a clipping off my Grandmother Choate's Christmas Cactus that has been in her house as long as I can remember. Her cactus often blooms. She must have given hers a name sooner.
