Snowy Day 1

[lavendertook]

We didn't get enough snow on Friday to close things, but since it was largely a crap and crazy-making week for me and my throat was feeling a little scratchy, I took off Friday from work to have a do-over weekend and de-stress. Saki does have hyperthyroidism, but it's mild and we've caught it at the start, so we don't have to rush the treatments, but start her on pills this week and see how she does with that.

I'm already feeling lucky I had a day saved up to take off, and more relaxed, so it was a good plan. The sun came out at rising on Friday for a little while and made the little bit of snow we got glisten. So here are some pics of the pretty out my apartment windows:

I didn't get a picture, but I spotted a huge red hawk hanging out on one of the tree tops for a while. And keeping with the theme of red, I saw a gorgeous red fox trotting across the train tracks for the Amtrak line while I was riding Metro this morning to work.

I'll post some more snow pics next entry.

Welcome! I've seen your name around the fandom--probably mainly middleearthnews. Thank you! (-:

We got clouds the rest of the day but I heard nothing of that blizzard ya'll got. The weather can be so very different between the VA and MD sides of the built-up swamp that is DC, just across 30 or so miles--it's very weird.

I'm so glad I can provide the evidence of the day for you--take that, doubters! (-; I'll be posting a few more pics in the next couple of entries. Please let me know which pic you select for your desktop--I'll be curious. (-:
