Our Ice Storm

Last night, when mom and I went out do last minute peepee's at 9pm, the snow was just beginning to twinkle down.    We went out this morning at 3am, and it was raining and my beautiful snow was already mushy. 

Now it's almost noon and the rain has taken a break - long enough for us to check out the yard. 
My sissy's boyfriend was here about an hour ago and he plowed our driveway.   Bless him 87 times over!
It's still very icy and very slick and mom decided that there was no way she was heading down the steps with me.

 So we went through the garage and out the back door and past our poor icy Rosemary.

 The Dogwood tree is weeping and covered in ice.

 The Bittersweet berries~

 And the Holly berries~

 This is just wet snow.

 Wet snow is not fun snow.   You can't see from this angle, but 3 long-needle Pine tree branches have already cracked and fallen to the ground and we are hoping that no more fall.

 It's starting to rain again and we need to get ourselves inside, mom!

 Right now, our temps are 30 degrees F.     In a few hours, the temps will drop like a rocket and the wind will pick up and it's possible more branches will fall.     We are praying they don't fall on power lines and we lose our electricity.    There is no generator here. 

Tomorrow, will be an icy cold bitter day and mom says no walkies for either one of us.

 There are many of us on the east coast experiencing this nasty storm.     Stay safe and warm, everybuddy! 

Love ya lots♥
