in the lane, snow is glistening, a beautiful sight, we're happy tonight.

the holiday season is long gone but we are still in the midst of winter. with two snowstorms within days of each other and another major storm brewing, it makes me wish i worked from home and my only commute would be from my bedroom to the living room sofa, laptop in tow.

as i was walking the dogs this morning and in my morning commute to work, everything seemed so still and peaceful (maybe because all schools and most offices were closed/delayed). i had to resist taking photos of every single snow-capped tree. as much as snow is a pain (shoveling driveway, brushing off the car, black ice) i still find its beauty breathtaking. it really feels like we are living in a winter wonderland.

for this weekend, radio stations and the local news are reporting a possible major snow storm with estimated snowfall of 2-3ft. this is somewhat frightening to me, i have never dealt with this much snow and both my sister and brother-in-law will be out of town. i don't know how well i can handle cabin fever by myself! i do know, i will be making a trip to the grocery store tonight to stock up on food just in case. i have also been thinking about taking up knitting again. i went through a phase in college where a few friends of mine would hang out at each others' dorms and have a knitting party! lol, i know, those days are long gone but all of this snow makes me want to bundle up in my coziest wear, sit by a fire, and knit.

a few pictures i took on this morning's walk:
