I do like snow though.
A short clip from front door. Not ready to venture out.
Will be getting into the 60's tomorrow evening and then of course droppin back down.. I like winter a lot better than hot hot summer.
I don't think several boxwoods in the front will make it this year. They are turning orange in some places. I guess it's from so much moisture.
If anyone knows what I can do to save them, please tell me. I hate losing them.
Little icy rain coming down so I think I will take a rest on the bed with a book.

We had snow, then ice and then freezing rain...Seems to be the story of our Winter here in NEPA!! Definitely no signs of Spring here!! Thanks so much for stopping by!!

I love the snow too, Betsy! It's been a snow/sleet/rainy day for us. Our backyard looks like it will be a while before we can venture out there. It's so wet and now with warmer temperatures tomorrow it's all going to be a muddy mess.
I have been having boxwood issues as well. I'm afraid mine might have blight which there is not much you can do about it. A blogging friend of mine sent me this link you may want to look at as well. https://blog.fantasticgardeners.co.uk/cure-blight-box/ ♥
Nice to see the snow but I am not a fan of icy rain.
I don't mind snow most of the time but ice can be so dangerous so I am not too fond of it. When the roads around here are like a skating ring it isn't fun. That is what I found about boxwood : " If exposed to bright sun in winter, some boxwood foliage temporarily loses its green color; leaves take on an orange cast or turn an unattractive brownish-yellow. ... The color change is unattractive but not harmful and reverses quickly in the spring as temperatures rise."
Betsy, that is such a cute shot of the playhouse. Glad you finally got your snow. We got a little more than we had hoped for. A beautiful winterwonderland this morning..Happy Thursday..xxoJudy
Reading a good book sounds perfect with winter weather outside!
Betsy,
I was able to hold my Knee Replacement Surgery off for 6 years. He never thought I would last this long because of what the initial Xrays looked like 6 years ago with being bone on bone. I managed it by losing weight which he told me to do and by doing the stationary bike which he told me to do. They have a whole regime pre -op. I start taking Iron, Folic acid and Vit. b 12 30 days prior to surgery and 30 days after to build up my blood to deal with the blood loss. I go to a Joint Replacement class, meet with Anesthesia ( it will be a spinal with something given like Versed, Per op testing, History and complete physical appt. Before leaving the hospital the day or 2 after surgery, I will have to go through at least 3-4 therapy sessions including doing steps. Then go to outpatient PT and track my progress online at home. It is quite a program, I have to admit. I know I put this off too long and he always said that one day, I would wake up and not be able to walk and that is what happened.....
Hugs,
Deb
