2024 Snow, SNOw, SNOW! (All New Photos)
The entire Chicagoland area is covered with snow. The dolls are all stuck at home, well almost everyone.
Trish and her assistant, Cam, are out trying to salt. But, they have given up as the plows haven't come by yet, nor their maintenance service. Trish's Garden Center is closed like everything else!

Camillia (Cam): I had no idea there was this much snow, seems it all swirled and landed right here in the Garden Center.
 |

Trish: Yep, I think salting is futile until the maintenance crew gets here. We surely can't open. Long as we are here, let's slog to the back and clean the coolers and the workshop, okay? Maybe start on inventory---it will be great to not be interrupted.

Cam: Sure Trish, I really don't want to walk back to the apartment anyway. You have me as long as you want since all my classes are cancelled.
Down the street....

The backyard is buried in pristine white.

The kitchen is all clean, even the refrigerator.

The table was busy for the holidays. Grampa and Grandma White have left for Florida and the Christmas decorations have all been put away until next year.

The living room is peaceful,

Dr. Ken just finished a 36 hour shift at the hospital. So many accidents and injuries in the ER with the snowstorm.

She's curled up with her favorite book online, and Ken's pup, Hairy, is sound asleep at her side.
This is a Perfect winter day off!
Down the street at Rob and Chris's it's a warm cozy home in the remodeled Victorian.
 |
| barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Chris: So you will have all day off with the storm, what do you want to do tomorrow that doesn't involve driving?
Rob: I'm glad this storm happened on a weekend, we have three days to dig out!
Scooter: I'll help, I want to sledding if we can in the park.
Skipper: Me too!
 |
| barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Skipper: Where's Fat Cat?...we are eating and he isn't here begging for food.
 |
| barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Chris: I caught him digging in the garbage in the bathroom and scolded him. I'm sure he is sulking somewhere.
 |
| barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Fat Cat: (I never sulk, I get even---that report looks tasty in the printer????)
 |
| barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Skipper: I want to go sledding in the park tomorrow, too. Maybe make some snow angels.
Rob: How about a snowball fight?
Chris: Sure, girls against YOU!
 |
| barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Chris: I really just want to watch movies!
 |
| barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Fat Cat:( I wonder if the girls left any snacks in their room....I'll go look!)
 |
| barbieoldnewgreenredo |
(Now where would they have snacks?)
 |
| barbieoldnewgreenredo |
Rob: Well if it keeps snowing, we will get to do everything you want. That snow is really piling up against the glass windows though...Hmmmmmmmm?

Cute post! Philly keeps getting teased with the possibility of snow, but nothing really so far. Maybe 1-3" into tomorrow, we'll see:@) Stay warm and be careful shoveling!!!
ReplyDeleteThought of you last night...sorry for the loss...and a little snow is always a fresh look for winter...hate that gray brown black world when it's bare. Hugs, Sandi
DeleteIt has snowed here in Philly! So I really am getting into your snow scene. Looking at your Victorian house makes me feel bad about not working on mine. I love that you have added lights to yours. I think that must make a real difference for photos.
ReplyDeleteHi, Ms. Leo. YES lighting is definitely a plus and even for enjoying it yourself. I have multiple posts on lighting---you can search and pull up all the DIY's. I'm slowly working on removing battery lights, as they burn oup so many batteries, but that is hard for sure! Thanks for visiting! Sandi
DeleteI so enjoy your story line and looking at all the detail you have so meticulously created. I am working on simple dollhouse minis to sell at the annual train/dollhouse show at the Augusta, ME armory in mid-Feb. Housework will be there. At least washing dishes helps get the glue and paint off my hands!
ReplyDeleteLOL, Yes, it's bad when you want to wash your hair, just to get your nails clean...LOL.Great luck with your show. I did art and craft shows for almost 40 years...and it is so exhausting, exciting and exhilarating all the same time! I'm hoping to up my mini sales on my etsy shop this year, if I ever get some major time to work on them. Thanks for visiting, Sandi
