Snow day(s)

There was a huge snow storm (blizzard) that covered much of the Midwest. (the Dakotas, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, and Missouri and Iowa.)

The county couldn’t keep up with the drifting snow, so they opted to pull all of the plows off the road. (They even closed major highways.)

Our poor dog Cici hates this much snow. She doesn’t like when she can’t see over the snow.

Poor pup! You can tell she is not impressed by the snow.

I am just so glad that it finally stopped snowing!

Everyone I know is safe, which is a relief.

That time of year.

Of course its is Christmas time, it is also my birthday soon.




Not just any birthday either. I am unfortunately approaching one of those mile-stone birthdays. *sigh* I turn 29 in a few weeks.



Luckily my Rasputin tried to distract me from this fact by taking me shopping; at the Mall of America.

M.O.A




I picked up a pair of Doc Martin boots. I had been wanting a pair for along time.

At Forever 21 I bought this a red striped sweatshirt and a cool skirt. (Oddly enough, I couldn’t find either on the Forever 21 website.)

Rasputin bought me warm winter boots, and a tin of English toffee for my birthday.

I bought myself a large eye shadow compact and a warm fuzzy hat.

So…I am trying to get over being bummed out. So far so good.
