Looking lovely there, Jill. Did you wear your new pearls?Originally Posted by SillyJilly
We got hit hard here Friday and then again tonight.... We were down to cement on the sidewalk... but not when we finally got outside. Blizzard warnings kept us indoors... Here I am standing behind the snowblower... 2 feet of snow on my side and about 1 foot behind where it blowed from.
It sucked!
Yeah that wind sucked for the windchill and the visability was crap!!!!

What was that about a gnome? Here's a shot from someone in Vancouver, WA... posted on KATU's YouNews page (way back near the beginning... yet only from yesterday)Originally Posted by AddieBee
Poor thing looks like a snow covered gnome's hat!
I have no problems going out here in Portland... if the folks around me knew how to drive, etc. They're refusing the shovel/de-ice the parking lot of my apartment complex, so it makes things all the more difficult. If I could get out of the complex, I'd be fine, without chains... but I can't get out of the complex... and two buses broke their chains right at my intersection this morning alone. Not to mention the two trucks that got stuck, and the car that came about ten feet from hitting me (I was walking on the sidewalk) because he couldn't control his car... my store is closed today (as well as yesterday), and I'm off until the 26th... at which point most of this should be under control. Portlanders/Oregonians don't get this kind of snow often... it's incredible the amount of bad driving and hysteria that comes out when it does hit here.
If you would have sent her the pink set, it would have matched her pink scarf.Originally Posted by gemlady

I do have to admit, I DO miss the snow on Christmas. It just doesn't seem the same w/o it.

I really don't think Jill will be wearing any evening gown & pearls for a looooong time to come!She'll be digging out from under for the next 6 months!
Now, if you wanna think about sending me some pretty pink pearls, I should be set to go in another day or two..
Since you won't be able to wear your pretty green pearls for quite awhile, you could always loan them to me till it warms up again.Originally Posted by SillyJilly
How right you are! And we got hit again yesterday and more snow/rain today! It's a mess.

How do you suppose we'd share a pearl necklace?Originally Posted by SillyJilly
No way Jose'! You're not getting my pretty pearls!But, you send me a airline ticket to come visit you, I might let you wear half and I can wear the others and we can go out together!What do ya think? I could use some nice weather!
wow, very atmospheric shot!Originally Posted by Nekochan
We had a lot of snow on the ground but it is all melting!
This is what it looked like outside my house last night:
(the fuzziness in the air is fog, not snow-- it was already warm enough for things to begin to melt.)
Me, greedy?Originally Posted by SillyJilly
I was thinking more you could wear the necklase and I the earrings... but I dunno now! You are getting greedy!And mean, talking about all the warm weather!
No, you seemed to have forgotten to mention that! Though I don't think I'd still be able to part with them!!! Did I ever tell you about the really pretty pink jeweled watch I sent my SS 2 years ago?Originally Posted by KittKatt
Me, greedy?Only when it comes to jewelry!
If it's any consolation, it did get colder here again, and I'm not wearing capris and a short-sleeved shirt.
Did I ever tell you about the gorgeous green chrome diopside ring that I have?
Maybe we can make a trade?
Oh - I'm sorry!
I don't blame you! I wouldn't be able to, either!
I already have a pink watch.Did I ever tell you about the really pretty pink jeweled watch I sent my SS 2 years ago?
Well, at least it was pink!Oh yeah, and complete with pink toilet brush!
