So pretty, so cruel

Backyard Shed

I can not remember the last time I looked out one of my windows and wanted to take a photograph. Yesterday I saw from my kitchen that our maple tree's shadow lay perfectly across the front of our shed and thought it was the coolest image. I went to look at it from the bedroom window and saw that I could also get the actual maple tree in the image which created a cool layering effect. The cute little kitty paw prints were an additional sweet touch.

Don't ask me to go out there though. I was desperate for milk and eggs so I walked to the corner store in the -20C windchill and thought I was going to die. February truly seems to be the cruellest month here. It makes January look like a wuss. Thankfully the milk and eggs will keep me going inside for a while. I am not going anywhere.

Hubby came home yesterday all sick and in terrible shape. When he feels better he will look at Rebel and see if he can put her back together. For now I will be making lots of tea and helping him come back together.

Winter... you life sucker.

Winter would be nice if he didn't stay way past his welcome.
Here we had a week of 70*F/20*C weather and then it got cold again.
