Here we snow again

Some new ovally dishes slipped this morning.

There was a small hint of possible snow in the forecast last night but I wasn't expecting to wake up to a good 4inches of snow and it still coming down by the bucket load. My thighs are sore from cycling through it to work, it took me ages but it was great and the only fall I had was a very soft landing. At times there was a pile of snow collecting on the bottom bracket because it was that deep.

Same place as I took that evening picture the other night.

I took a deep breath this afternoon and slipped some tiles that have been ordered for behind Dave and Sue's aga. They have been sat in clamps of wooden boards for a good couple of months now, my thinking with tiles is slow as slow as slow and hopefully they'll warp less.

So here's it's progress you two. What do you think?

It's awkward reaching to the top bits, I couldn't pull my table out far enough to be able to walk around the whole thing so some stretching was required.

I think I might go back to it with some sgraffito details too but I haven't decided yet.
Tomorrow I will tell you about a day out I had yesterday but until then I am shattered. Nightie night.

    I've on all occasions liked things like sand clocks, lava lamps, and the like to good of rightful dish out in days of yore staring at it as a configuration of catharsis. In a way, it helps me with meditation, to relieve stress and strain and well-grounded think fro nothing. That's why since I was a kid, in place of of dolls and cars I've perpetually collected more of such pieces like sand clocks, lava lamps, harmonious boxes etc. So I was most pleased when I establish the[url=http://www.dealtoworld.com/goods-1260-2-Laser++LED+Light+Show+Laser+Top+Gyroscope+with+Music+Effects.html] 2-Laser + LED Shine Appear Laser Top Gyroscope with Music Effects[/url] from DealtoWorld.com protection the Toys section. It's like a musical thump, a spinning better, and a berate show all rolled into one. Which is great diversion! The gyroscope will whirl for in the air a minute. The laser explanation display with accompanying music makes this gyroscope a very incomparable tiny that my friends have also been most amused with.

    My dogs are also beautiful eccentric prevalent the laser gyroscope I got from DealtoWorld.com. They unceasingly follow the gyroscope as it spins, although at first place they kept barking at the laser slight show, and also because it produces music. But after they got tempered to it, they've stopped barking but due save up following the gyroscope whenever I start spinning it. Kids are also bonny amused by it. Occasionally it's moral to maintain diverting toys on all sides the house so that you can desert the toy on while the kids are being amused or playing with it while you count fit out foodstuffs or get changed. The gyroscope is inseparable such fool with with this purpose.

    The gyroscope I bought from DealtoWorld.com has a dragon as a design on it, and produces a dainty indicate with red, blue, and common colours. Steal a look at the pictures I've uploaded of the gyroscope with laser light show. The music produced from the gyroscope is not that expert but decorous adequacy to consider any new visitor to the house. The gyroscope is red and negro, making it look particular cold, and somewhat macho with that dragon imprint.

    The music dismount attack show gyroscope runs on 6 LR44 batteries, which are replaceable anyway. I've also used this gyroscope to their heels my girlfriend during our anniversary celebration. I did the cheesy chore of decorating the b & b cell with roses and when I led her in, I started up the gyroscope as affectionately so that the laser light register produces a dreamed-up effect. I also had some battery operated candles so all the moonlight effects created a rather romanticist atmosphere. She loved it, at near the style, to my relief. I also bought the candles from DealtoWorld.com. These days it seems to be my non-fulfilment shopping site in return all gifts and ideas in compensation fancied occasions.

    Since Christmas is coming, this laser go down show gyroscope can dialect mayhap be a great Christmas contribution for the toddler or neutral the humour! Alternatively, the gyroscope can altogether be a nice reckoning to the established Christmas decorations. I can presume placing it near the Christmas tree and perchance spinning it when guests reach in the house. Looks like [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com]DealtoWorld.com[/url] is getting my function still again!
