This is a photo of the backyard at Holly’s house right now. The snow is so high, but the picture doesn’t accurately depict it. It’s literally been snowing this big fluffy snow for 3 days now, with no breaks at all.

Thankfully Holly owns a snow-blower, or my back would be in major pain right now. Her driveway is huge, and would take me an hour at least with a shovel. I’ve had to use it 3 times in the last 24 hours, and I actually think I enjoy it. I just need to find my warm winter boots and it might be my new favourite chore.

The other benefit to the snow-blower is that I don’t have to rush inside afterward and strip off my layers of clothing because I’m sweating like mad, and have exhausted my energy reserves. This (coupled with my newly acquired Nerf gun) has been making me want to build a snow fort really bad. Unfortunately the snow is not pack-y at all, and is therefore practically useless.

Although it did provide a nice background for a walk with Holly last night. A walk which provided us both with a chance to sport our custom made scarfs, courtesy of the Queen Cobra.

That’s Holly bundled up with her new grey Silver Scarf of Power. It keeps her warm and grants her level 7 enchanted embalming radial attacks with +2 to hotness.

An here I am in my Super Space Invading Scarf of Skillage. It keeps that animal growing on my throat warm (although you’d think something with that much fur would stay warm fine on it’s own), and adds +5 to all skills and +1000 to deadly good looks.

Both worked awesome, and now lie resting for when their powers are next called upon. (Thanks mum <3)
