Was I wishing for a proper period of dormancy in the garden? I'd better be more careful. The ground has been frozen for days, and there's nasty enough snow/ice today that my day classes are all canceled. That's not a whole lot in Seattle, home of about two snowplows total, but it's colder than my plants are used to. I'll probably lose all the overwintering garlics, and very likely the onions too. One can only hope the little snow peas live up to their name.

If things ever unfreeze, I bet the roses will be much easier to move...

continued snow day

Evening classes are canceled now too. Wonder when we're going to do the distance learning orientation. We've got an accumulation of about four inches now, after a steady fall of very small flakes since I woke up at 5-damned-30 this morning. It's still coming. The cats are powerfully cuddly, there's a stranded snout sleeping upstairs, and the cockatiel is still a guest.

Happy snowy birthday to hattifattener, the best sweetie ever, even if he is crazy enough to take the bus to work in this incapacitated city. I finished knitting his birthday socks while he was taking a shower this morning. :)
