Finally Friday with JJ

JJ here today.

I get to do the reporting today because all the other kitties

are busy or snoozing. Besides,I hardly ever get to post!

As you can see, Georgia is having a great snooze!

Last Friday we had a BIG snowstorm Mom said was a blizzard.

It was so bad,work was cancelled. Mom took these pictures

during the storm.

Even in blowing snow, this mourning dove sat in the tree!

It was then joined by some friends.

Even the smaller birds came looking for food.

During the storm,Mom would go out and clear out the birdfeeder

and stump and put out seeds. The snow quickly piled up and 

the birds would dig for the seeds!

The tree branches were well covered in light,fluffy snow.

Mom said it was easy to move with her shovel.

When Monday came, it got warm and rained and took a lot 

of the snow away. Then it got cold and everything froze again.

There was even some pretty frost on the windows.

Winter paints some interesting images.

Today is not as cold and tomorrow will be even warmer.

Mom says we will be having rain this weekend and 

temperatures above 0 Celsius for next week.

There will  not be much sun though!

 

We wish you all a fun weekend !

Monday Musings with Georgia

 Georgia: I am sitting on this windowsill where I can see

into the porch, and through the door to the outside. It is

a stormy,messy day! So nice to be indoors.

Mom put out some seeds and mixed birdseed for the critters

outside. They liked it too.

This little bird was getting some seeds Mom puts on the stump.

It was pretty windy and the snow was blowing around.

Later in the day it changed to freezing rain and then rain.

It will be pretty slippery and messy when it starts to freeze!

We kitties are indoors, so only Mom has to worry about

 the conditions outside ;)

We all  are spending a quiet day.

JJ is wondering where he should go for a snooze.

Tiger is working on staying hydrated.

The air gets pretty dry when Winter comes.

Treasure is working on cleaning his furs and paws.

And Julie?

Well, she is doing her Monday post at House Panthers.

Thoughts on Friday the 13 !!

Oh hi !! Happy Friday the 13th!!

Guess what??
Yesterday we had a snowstorm1

The snow was blowing all around

because it was windy!!

Mom came home early because 

she had a dentist appointment.

This what she saw not long after she got home.

She was glad to be home as she usually gets 

home  about 1 1/2 hours later.

Good think there was not much snow.

By 9 PM, there was more snow.

It was still windy!!

Mom says the temperature is going up

and that it will rain!!

So today,she needed an umbrella!

We did not mind the storm!!

We were snuggled together

and nice and warm!!!!!!!!

Have a warm,cozy weekend !!!!!!!

Last Wednesday, we had a big snowstorm and
Mom took this picture .

Mom took this picture yesterday.
It had been above freezing all week and the snow melted!!!!
Today it is raining, so more snow will go!
Some might come back next week !

What a Difference a Day Makes

Mickey: Things look quite different around here today.
On Thursday, I was sitting on the porch and soaking up the sunshine.
It was pretty cozy too.

Tillie: That's right Mickey. We had a storm on Friday.
It snowed a little, then big winds blew all day!!!
Mom said it was very,very cold.

Look at our driveway now!!

Here is our front yard.
Mom took the pics this morning indoors!
It may be sunny, but it's still cold outside.
This morning it is -12C (10.4F)
The wind chill is -22C (-7.6F) !!!

Georgia: I am looking out this window at all the frosty trees.
They look quite pretty.

This is a little 'ice forest'.

Looking across the river.
Can you see the house on the other side?

The tree has snow on one side .
That way,you can tell which way the wind was blowing.

Now, the sky is clearing and it will be a bright sunny day.
It will also be a cold day, so we are happy to be indoors!!!!!

Close Up Friday and Snowstorm!

Georgia

Tillie
My eyes are not different colours.

My eyes are light green.

This is a video of the storm we had yesterday.
It came and went quickly and we are glad!
The snow stopped after supper and
then it started to warm up.

Mom put some birdseed out for the birdies.
We think the chickadees liked it!!

President Obama was in Ottawa,Canada today.
On the way home ,he stopped to buy Canadian cookies.
The bakery owner would not take President Obama's,
money because the cookies were for his children and he
said he would not eat them before he got home :)

Mancat Monday

It was cold again this weekend.
Mom decided it was a weekend to watch movies.
So, I did some of this...

and some of this.

This is snow that was blown onto the window.

It's melting a bit .

It's hard to show that it is windy and the snow is blowing sideways !!
The good news is that it is getting warmer!!!!!
Our freezing weather is gone, it might even rain tomorrow.

Oh well, back to my snoozing!!!

Happy Stormy New Year!

HAPPY HEW YEAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The big storm blew in starting last night!

This morning you can see the wind is still blowing hard.

We have a lot of snow too!!

Lots and lots of shoveling to do,heehee
Mom,why are you going back to bed?????
OK,I'll come too.
