Too Much Snow For Me

The Good, the Bad and the Not So Ugly! It has been snowing here so much in the Washington Metropolitan area. I don’t know if I should be happy or sad. It’s a thin line between love and hate; it’s the bitter with the sweet. At the beginning, the snow is so white and pretty but when it’s all said and done, it is not pretty trying to dig yourself out of it. Like your car for instant! For the past two days, I have been digging out my car that I don’t think I have ever shuffled so much snow in my entire life. The snow started on Friday, Feb. 5 just a little before noon and didn’t end until Saturday, Feb. 6 at around 6pm ending with almost 30 inches. By Friday night, it was already at least 7 to 8 inches.


I am surprised at my dog Rocky; I think he is starting to enjoy the snow, because usually when I take him out for his walk he doesn’t want to stay long. He is always ready to run back in the house after about 5 minutes.


It has been snow on top of snow on top of snow. It’s unbelievable! I thought I would share some pictures of me trying to dig my car out and so you can see how much snow we got. Also, some pictures of my dog Rocky enjoying the snow. I like the snow but this is just a little bit too much for me and I am so ready for spring. 


P.S. – I am so excited! I have been business working on my jewelry website which will be coming soon. All I need to do now is upload my pictures and then I will be launching it.  Take care and have a great weekend.

Happy Labor Day Everyone!

Wow! It is September already, summer is almost over, fall is coming and winter will be here soon and I am not looking forward to it. Does anyone hate winter like I do? Winter is no fun and it’s boring! I hate going out into the winter cold. You have to wear winter cloths and coats, you have to warm up your car, sit on cold seats, shuffle the snow off your car and sidewalk, and you have to get out of your warm bed. Everything is just cold! All I can say is drink some hot cocoa, hot tea and try to stay warm.

The year has gone by so fast, in 3 to 4 months Thanksgiving and Christmas will be here soon. Speaking of Christmas, I need to start making more handmade jewelry and start preparing for craft shows and festivals. This means, I need to get busy.


When you are working a full-time job and trying to manage your business, there is not enough time in the day to get everything you want done. One day I hope to be able to work on my business only. Well let me get back to work and please check back often for new jewelry updates. Have a great day everyone and enjoy. Will talk to you soon!

Quote of the Month

Nobody knows what you want except you and nobody will be as sorry as you if you don’t get it. Wanting some other way to live is proof enough of deserving it. Having it is hard work, but not having it is sheer hell.
