Today is an "e-learning" day for the schools in our district. There wasn't all that much melting of snow yesterday, and what little there was froze overnight (it was 12 degrees, or -11 Celsius, at sunrise this morning) so the roads aren't safe.
I like working from home; I brought my work laptop home so I can finalize payroll and take care of some other daily tasks, and the receptionist and I are dividing up the day to answer the office phone via Zoom app. I'll be done with my "shift" before lunchtime.
When it was just starting to snow on Saturday, one of the squirrels we're always feeding showed up at our dining room window and looked in at us imploringly. I took a big handful of shelled walnuts out there and put them on the windowsill, and the squirrel had a little feast.
It's been a real winter weekend here in Florence!

You are truly having a winter! We have yet to get snow , just loads of rain- we are now out of the ten year drought. Your cosy living room is so inviting. Lovely. Stay warm, stay safe!
Was that a White Russian? How appropriate— and now I want one too!
It was indeed! I hadn't had one in years!
That's great news about getting out of a drought! Last year was very dry for us, and we could really use a rainy spring.
I really like our living room. The large tv, the two chairs, and the ottoman are all fairly new, and the fireplace really IS cozy right now.
They should change the name of your state to Arctic Carolina. Brrr! It's much warmer in Yorkshire right now.
It really is cold for us. The last few days have even broken some records!
Jennifer, wow--you live in South Carolina, right?? I love the snowy photos and it looks like you had a cozy weekend but this is a little unreal. PS Your ottoman is very nice (I want to do the same) but I love your pair of chairs. You have nice taste. :^)
It has been really cold for us here in Virginia too. I cannot remember at time when it has stayed this cold for such a long time.
It looks so beautiful, particularly from the warm comfort of the inside of your home.
