But not here...lol  Yes, it is snowing all around us.4-12 inches to the west, to the north and to the south of us, as close as an hour away.   It's like we're in our own little secluded section of the NE. This happens quite often since we're so close to the beach. The warm air from the ocean blows over the land and keeps the snow away.  NOW, saying that, it COULD still snow later today.  We'll see.


We'll be decorating the tree today, finally!  It's been sitting outside, but was too big for DH to carry into the house by himself.  When we came home from my sorority party last night, DS and GF had put the tree up!  What a nice surprise!!So that's our project for the day.


I hope you are all WARM and COZY!!!!

Shari it's not snowing here either. But it's expected to snow north of us. But it's cold enough! Man! the rain yesterdays was way more than the 2 inches they predicted.


I'm decorating my tree as of right now. I took a break after getting the lights on.

Hi Shari! I have about the same situation here. It is snowing all around us. We are getting a few rainshowers and its very very cold but no snow. We may see some tonight. As long as the rain doesnt turn to sleet, we should be ok. I'd just as soon see snow as freezing rain.


How nice that you are getting your tree put up. Enjoy your afternoon!

I'm hearing all about the snow on the Eastern Seaboard. Does you little nook and cranny get a big snow during the season or are you always blessed? No snow here but it's a cold, windy, grey day.

Our DD told us it's snowing on Eastern Long Island. Sometimes it passes by, also because of the ocean, but not this time, I guess.


DH is wrapping the last gifts - a Wii for our DD - we wrapped everything else this afternoon. Everybody's got their own bag so we can load stuff in the car. We'll spend Christmas with our older DS and his family.


We didn't have a tree last year because we had just moved to Vermont. This year, we decided to have one. We found some boxes with our manger and other decorations but only about a dozen tree ornaments! We left the rest when we left L.I. Thank goodness we have a really good second-hand store which had a bunch of ornaments and an angel for the top.


We're dog sitting for a friend who has to work a double shift. His dog, Wallace, has been looking out the windows all afternoon looking for his Daddy. He doesn't understand that when Daddy works, he gets to eat!

We don't usually get any snow, but it IS coming down now!! I think we'll get a few inches before it's all over.
