Hi, Fellow Snowbirds

My daffs are up and starting to bloom amidst the hail and snow we recieved yesterday. I had to clean snow from the daff heads so they wouldn't die on me.

I got my rose order from Jackson & Perkins today......LOL....when do I plant NOW???

Luck o' the Irish to ya all,
Barb

Ok! OK! Hollywood has been a little busy!

Here is a whole new album devoted to spring in Hollywood Dell. I will make no comment on Jille's attempts to post our pics for all of you.

Thanks JoAnn -

what wonderful sites to see on this still snowy day!
I really like the frog tea lite holder in the first few pictures - very cute!

How's everything going for you? Have you had the other tests done yet?

Snow on the ground today. My snow drops are frozen. I can't find my tulips, crocuses, daffodils, or lillies. Birdies are building a nest in my porch, that's cool. It was cold today...36 today. Its supposed to flurry or something tomorrow morning and then a wintery mix on Sunday, which is NOT good since I have to go Lancaster that day.

Hi Hollywood & Jillie!



BTW, I have a daughter in LA, but it's a big place!!

On Tues we had 3 1/2 inches of snow, spitting rain and snow on Weds. It is looking very nice outside right now, looks promising.

Today is NOT promising here. They are telling us that we are supposed to get 6-8 inches of snow tonight into tomorrow. They said it wouldn't start until 11:00, but we were at Denny's at 9:30 and it had just started to snow. The cats are getting restless....I'M getting restless. Today market was crazy...everyone is scared of the snow. They so much as mention the word in the weather forcast and all of the stores are instantly sold out of eggs, milk, and bread (why would everyone make french toast when it snows????

3/19 it is 73 now, but is supposed to get to 81 today. and i'm stuck inside doing taxes

Weather here has been nice, hazy mornings, clearing to mid 70's by afternoon. Called my cousin who moved from here to Connecticut a year ago, she asked me if we were outside at the time of the call. "Of Course!" I answered. She said, and I quote: "If you love me, please don't tell me about the weather, please don't say anything." so I didn't. But I'm not always so nice; in the past I have called just to tell her I was drinking a Jamba Juice in the drive through of In-N-Out with the windows all down and the radio up.
Judith:
where 'bouts in LA is your daughter? It is as you say, "a big place".

So Californians, isn't this weather great after all that rain??? I feel like I'm just back from exile. I took three days off this week for a "stay-at-home-and spring-clean vacation" & I'm out as soon as the sun comes up. Man, is it ever good to play in the dirt. Potted tulips are going to open all the way this weekend...potted iris' are showing themselves, hostas are sprouty, potted artichoke is getting BIG, and all is right with the world. Ahhhhh, spring!
Snowfolks, your time is coming soon...hang in there.

Finally a nice day here. Yesterday was the pits. Today almost all of the snow has melted away thanks to the warmer temperatures. My crocuses have opened up and my tulips are on their way. I saw a HUGE flock of red breasts today on my way home from work!

Hey, Guess what we woke up to????????????

We've had alot of it lately here!!?????

Yeah, you guessed it,
SNNNNNNNNNNNOWWWWWWWWWWWW
oH, YEAH, MORE SNOW!!! About 3".

Just when you thought it was going to all go
away, it's baaaaaaaaaaaaaackkkkkkkk!!!!

Oh, well, next weeks' comin'!!!

It was quite cold this morning, low 20*'s,
but I did catch the long range weather report,
and I saw a couple of 50*'s by the end of the
week supposedly!!!!

Hi.I been lost in the 80s outside doing planting beds/sowing seeds/moveing plants from spot to spot(such a bad habit for me)on Thursday I paused by the fig tree and closed my eyes wishing could feel weezies snow for about 10 minutes.It was 89 out then and was muggy& had just ran from a red wasp.I have butterflys out in yard flying about happily.I woke up about 5 am sunda morning to a heavy downpour of rain/thnder& lightning of 2 inches& noticed this morning some of my seeds from last week have sprouted already.I have mowed grass& I HAVE A TAN yes a TAN! shoot neighbors kids been going to the lake swimming on weekends*I got their tan beat* :p
I'm catching up on mail not been online since Thursday Its 69 today...we had a cold front drop in but will warm back up tomorrow then back to the 80s for S TX& I'm filling m pool back up& have swam in lake already.I had got hot in yard(gee imagine that!ya snowbirds!)

Cold here today. 30's all day long...and windy. Today I actually got house work done. The cats are loving the sun that is pouring through the front windows this afternoon. They are totally solar powered right now. anyways, thats the weather here today.

ok, the last 2 nights we had frost. had to cover my garden with sheets to keep the plants alive. the good news is that i had some that needed washed anyway

weezie, i think you sent that weather down here just to get back at me for Sunday! :p stop it! i'm saying uncle

hope ya'll have a good day!

Jiff,
I think your weather's heading up my way
by the weekend!! It's suppoesed to be a whole
50*'s and then some!!!
I love the nice weather to come, but also dislike
it because it's still got snow in it's system, and
the poor flowers are out and and the cold weather nips then, (snow's not bad, it insulates it, but the freezing temp's squwish the flowers, don't hurt the bulbs for next year, but only this years flowers.)

It's 32*'s this morning!!
Heat wave again!

Weezie
Sunny this weekend though

BBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!
CCCCCCCCOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLDDDDDDDDD!!!!!

Just came home from standing outside in 20F!!! for AN HOUR!!!

My daughter's grade is off to Washington D.C. for 3 days. We had to be at the bus at school at 6:00a.m., but 5 out of the 6 "luxury" buses got LOST!!! And did not show up until 6:50!!!
Then all the loading of luggage and kids - they didn't leave until 7:10... and NONE of us was dressed for this 20 degrees - BRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!

Well... after I thaw out some, I'm off for my own 3 day retreat to a cousin's in Connecticut. They have a wonderful house on 5 acres with a large pond - it's heavenly up there!

Talk to you all when I get back!

It's actually not too bad here this morning,
semi~spring like, smells like it in the air!!
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!
The sun is shining and the birdies are out
chirpin' and scratchin' *in the snow and mud* :p
But they're makin' the best of it!!!!
spring's around the corner???

Weezie

Its 9:00 and 43 degrees soo far this morning. I'm going to go outside and play in the dirt!! Gots lots of tilling to do before I go out to do regular errands. The snow is almost all melted here, birdies are out driving our kitties nuts. I left the front door open a little so the kitties can sit at the screen door and enjoy themselves. The baby cat doesn't know what to make of it. So anyways, I'm going outside!!! Toodles!
