It 70 here.
sunglasses needed.

Mittens, not so much

(PS If you're a Democratic, don't be enticed by the nice weather report for Arizona. Per Bernie Sanders, you will be shot on arrival.)

This isn't very good snowball snow, is it? I haven't tried lately. Maybe as I wait for the #6 bus.

So much for the President's calls of greater civility.

Obama Derangement Syndrome.

You look a bit like a crazy cat lady.

Hey! You just made my day!

Great job, Irene and Martha, I love both shades.

Next year: fingerless gloves for blogging.

Showing some attitude, I see. Even hemmed in, Ann's a formidable foe.

She certainly does.

That takes a wetter snow, the kind you see on the East Coast, particularly around Philadelphia. Sometimes the snow is so wet there, people need an umbrella.

Also good for snowball-making.

Throwing hate spheres?

Haven't we seen enough violence out of you for one week, Sarah Palin?

Deb said...

Oh. God. The Hearse Curtain Skirt shows up again. In brown. You may be 60, but need you dress like 89?

Dressed in your Sunday best for a snowball fight.
