1. Growing up my family did after our big dinner and presents Christmas Day. That's when my mom had time while she was off work. Usually once we finish our festivities for the day we are all just done with Christmas stuff. I'm still that way but I waited until next day

2. Either! I love the rain though as long as it's not a severe storm. I enjoyed reading when we visited Colorado in the snow though years ago

We had so much fun running around outside. Stay safe, but enjoy it if you can! ❄️❄️❄️❄️#dogsoflitsy #catsoflitsy

RedxoHearts Aw cute. It's not as cold or snowing here but i spent the last hour convincing the dogs they had to go out real quick. They finally did but immediately ran back inside and sat in front of the heater. 3y
wisherwishinguponastar @RedxoHearts They have the right idea! My puppy was covered in snowballs and we had to stick her in a room temperature bath to melt them! 3y

#WonderousWednesay @Eggs

@Avanders Thanks for the gag :)

❄ I have to say it would be the classic A Christmas Carol ❄ I have a few goals for the upcoming year #22for22, but I think one important one was to pay off my car ❄ I am grateful for a day off! I have an upcoming doctors appointment today and I am nervous but really need to figure out what's going on ❄

Tagging: @AkashaVampie @Bookworm54 @jb72 @AsYouWish @Mrs_B

Mrs_B Thank you for the tag! 3y
Eggs Hope you got good news at the doctor ❤️ 3y
ElizaMarie @Eggs Not really :( I mean it was basically that I will probably need surgery sooner than later, but they want the Neuro Ophthalmologist to weigh in because if it might be detrimental to my eye sight I might have to rethink the next steps ... I have to wait for that appointment (Mid February) 3y

Avanders Ooh I love A Christmas Carol too! ♥️🎄 Sorry to hear you didn‘t get great news … but hopefully if you do get it, a sooner-surgery means you‘re feeling better more quickly! 🙏🏽 If not, hope there are good alternative next steps to consider! 3y
ElizaMarie @Avanders agree! I can‘t wait till I get to do something about this. It‘s very hard to struggle with the pain and just so stressful too 3y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Hoping you get relief sooner than later. 💜 3y
ElizaMarie @Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick thank you so much! Its been a rough ride, but I am hopeful that I am in the right hands and it's only a matter of time before I can get better 3y

#Two4Tuesday @TheSpineView

❄ I don't love the snow. Well, I don't like having to function in the snow, I love the look of it from my warm home near the fire, but not when I have to work or just basically function ❄ Ha, so.... sitting by a fire reading a book having a glass of coffee/chocolate/wine ❄

No longer Tuesday but -- I tag @AsYouWish, @jb72, @Read4Life @BookwormAHN @PageShifter @AkashaVampie

TheSpineView Never too late to play! Happy Wednesday! 3y

It's been snowing since midnight. Definitely a lot of snow for this area. 🙄🙄🙄

I'm not tempted to go out into the cold (-6°C) and build a snowman, but I'd love to have a go with this snowplough. 😁

I'm plotting mini-reviews and drinking tea in the warmth of my living room.

GingerAntics If you get a go on the snow plow, get pictures!!! I‘ve always wanted to take one of those for a spin!!! 4y
julesG @GingerAntics Chances are slim. I wish I could visit my brother (400 kilometres away). He's a rep for all sorts of machinery, snowploughs and snow blowers (the big ones, you can drive on the motorway) included. I do envy my 5y/o nephew right now. He's in heaven when he can come to work with my brother. 4y
CoffeeAndABook Wow, all that snow!! ☃️ here in Cologne not a flake & 3 degrees above zero. Weird day for weather in Germany 🤷🏼‍♀️ hope you can make it a cozy reading Sunday 🔥 4y

shortsarahrose Thank goodness the snow squal didn‘t get to Cedar Rapids! We‘ve had enough bad weather for one year 😆 4y
katy4peas @shortsarahrose ugh! You most certainly have! I‘m learning all sorts of new weather-related words this year though. 🤷🏼‍♀️ 4y
katy4peas @MellieAntoinette The weather radio went off with an “Unidentified Warning” and then our phones went off with the snow squall specific alert from the NWS. I guess there were white outs on the roads too. I‘ll send the next snow squall to you! 😉❄️ 4y
