Wow! That shocked even me. I am so glad I was able to give so many things away this year. And surprise! This year I even kept a few things for myself!
This is a photo of the road and the picnic table across the street. I’m guessing we have close to 8 inches or more of snow so far.
This one is outside our door. I have shoveled three times today already. And have cleaned that table on the right off twice!
It has been snowing since 9:00 last night and it is 3:30 in the afternoon right now. It was supposed to change to rain this afternoon but that has not happened.
I’m staying home except for Chloe‘s walks. Have a wonderful evening my friends.
Blessings and love,
Betsy
Wowza!!! You've accomplished so much. I don't know how you do it.
ReplyDeleteYour snow photos are beautiful. We are expecting rain for the next few days and I've got the headache to prove it.
I am absolutely speechless (well nearly!) at all that you have made this year for charity....incredible Betsy! When I compare with my middling amount of RAOCK makes for the Random Acts of Crochet Kindness FB group I feel quite astounded! That snow looks quite deep...I hope it does not continue otherwise I can see you having to dig yourselves out. I have not found this a boring post at all!! I think you are a star!!! Happy New year Betsy and hopefully a much better one for all! stay safe Amanda x
ReplyDeleteYou are a prolific knitter! Way to go Betsy! Wow that is lots of snow. You beat our snowfall!! :)
ReplyDeleteGosh, you are so busy and so generous! Stay warm.
ReplyDeleteThat is an amazing list of items you've made. I believe it works out to more than one a day!!
ReplyDeleteThe amount of snow you got is also quite amazing. It's so beautiful even if it's inconvenient.
Lots of items made for people and you. I don't that much. I need to finish what I started. That's a lot of snow. 2-3" in CO where Megan's at. Quite rainy today and chilly with a breeze blowing. Indoors except for 2 trips to mailbox. Home most rest of week most likely. Happy new year my friend!🌹☺💜🌹
ReplyDeleteWOW!!! Betsy! You have accomplished so much in 2020 - and so much of it for charity. So impressive. Hope you are staying warm, cozy and safe in the snow. As Dee says it is so pretty to see, but I know it can be treacherous to be out in it. Take Care!! It is a chilly, grey and rainy day here, but we do not have to go anywhere!
ReplyDeleteLove you Betsy. May Godbless you with abundance this new YEaar. Healthy abundance! and your list is most impressive
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful list of accomplishments this year. Your talents and generosity are helping a lot of people. Happy New Year
ReplyDeleteWow.. what an amazing list of accomplishments! I only finished a few blankets and not a heck of a lot more.. so no list for me. But I did make jewelry and rolled beeswax candles and did a lot of decorating! That is a lot of snow, my friend. I would like at least one nice snow here.. but not one flake so far. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

You have been absolutely BUSY BUSY BUSY being a good person and blessing so many with the works of your hands and heart! Thank you for being a good piece of this world! That is quite the snow. We're expecting freezing rain and ice, then several inches of snow overnight and into tomorrow, but I doubt it will be anything like that. Right now it's 22° and sunny. Stay well, stay warm, and be blessed, my dear friend! Love and hugs!
ReplyDeleteYou've been very productive this year!
ReplyDeleteWe lost all our Christmas snow a day or two later. It rained all day yesterday, so there's not even a dirty snowbank left!
Beautiful snowy photos!
ReplyDeleteI like how you define success.
Amazing stats! The snowy pics are so serene!
ReplyDeleteWOW! That is a LOT of work! And to know you gave nearly all of it away is just amazing! God bless you for all you do for others. The snow is just gorgeous. Please be careful walking on the slick surfaces, sweet friend. Happy New Year to you and Dennis!
