Another winter storm moved through the area. Richmond only got a couple inches of snow before it changed over to freezing rain during the night. Once I could actually hear the precipitation, especially the little pings of ice, I knew the snow was not for long. It's pretty slushy outside on softer surfaces. The streets and walkways seem to just be wet, which isn't a bad thing (as opposed to icy). The dormant plants and trees look rather lovely, in their crystalline sheaths (which at this point don't seem to be doing damage). It's cold out there though...or at least it feels really cold owing to the moisture in the air and zero sunshine. It's a good day to stay inside (mostly)...and I took the opportunity to stay in my robe a bit longer this morning, sitting by the fire and sipping my tea.
In other news (or...something), there's been a challenge (I think that's what it's being called) on FB, for people showing how their profile pics have changed from when first on the site. I felt like the most current photo of me, from August of last year, wasn't quite honest enough...so I made one today. I've decided I look like a 60 year old and that's quite all right. What a blessing to be 60 and have the good fortune to experience life!
