FINAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYY I had an opportunity to make another snowman HUE HE HE HE HE HE HE...Since yesterday it was so wet everywhere since the temperature rose up to 2'C, so the snow was melting everywhere. Plus this morning it was raining water for a while. I was hoping for the rain to stop. It did stop after a while but it changed into snow since the temperature dropped to below 0'C again after midday. Right after lunch, I went out to find out if I could make another snowman. And I COULD!!!
This time I didn't roll the snow into big balls. I cheated ha ha ha ha ha...I used a shovel to gather all the snow around my snowman and I patched it up to make it plump and round. I did it ALL BY MYSELF and it was SO tiring! I wouldn't have been able to make it on my own if I made the snowballs first the usual way, 'coz I had to put the balls on top of the big one and it would drain my stamina!!! Even though I cheated, I was sweating like a pig after I was done. Plus my nose was runny all the time. It probably took me 45 minutes or maybe close to an hour to make this snowman all by myself. It was really good exercise. I bet tomorrow my body will be sore ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...
Trin, I'll do the name on the snow thingie later, OK? There'll still be plenty of snow to do that later on, but the weather won't stay this wet all the time so there're less opportunities to make a snowman. Besides, by the time I was done with this snowman, I was SO tired he he he he he he...
Anyway, without further ado, here are the pics.
First pic: Only two snowballs there. You can see the shovel I used in the first two pics.
Second pic: The sky is SO dark already he he he he he...It was around 2 pm.
Third pic: Sorry, folks...my nose was still runny and my face was SO red ha ha ha ha...and look at my DAMP hair!!!! ;-D
Ta-daaaa....finally it was decorated, but still armless, I'm afraid ha ha ha ha...I actually wanted to make a much bigger snowman but I was too tired. Phew!!! It was really hard work he he he...At least this time it's MUCH plumper, don't you think so? ;-D Hope you like the pics!!!
Sob sob...I just called my parents' place. Unfortunately the connection was bad, so I couldn't really communicate well with my Mom or brother. So I just sent an SMS to my brother to wish him all the best for tomorrow (his wedding day). Anyway, I wasn't going to talk for a long time with Mom 'coz they had lots of guests there: my Mom's siblings plus some of their kids, my Dad's siblings and some of their kids. I could hear chaos there. My brother replied my SMS and joked, "Yeah, it's so crowded here that it looks like a pigsty." HUA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA...
I can imagine how excited they are. It's always so NICE to gather with your relatives before or on a special occasion, especially when it's a happy occasion such as a wedding, don't you think?
My family's going to have a VERY busy day tomorrow! I'm just glad I could listen to my Mom's voice even only for a while. Just by listening to her voice, I knew everything was well taken care of and she was healthy he he he he he...
Today it's only 2'C and it makes the snow MELT!!!!!!!!! It's SO wet out there, folks!!! It's going to be dangerous if it stays this wet and then the temperature drops down again 'coz then there'll be a layer of ice on the roads. However, if it's still wet tomorrow, I can make a SNOWMAN again in my in-laws' yard!!!!!!!!!! HUE HE HE HE HE HE HE HE...
Now all the trees are green again (no snow on the branches). I'm truly looking forward to tomorrow. It seems to me going to my in-laws feel like taking a mini vacation every Saturday. I LOVE that place SO much!!!
Ahhhh...tomorrow my brother's going to end his bachelorhood he he he...I'll send him SMS again later on and I'll try to call my parents again a day or two afterward to find out how it went. ;-D
Oh, speaking of party, last night my Brit friend (the organizer of our pikkujoulu or small pre-Christmas party) has contacted us to ask where we'd prefer to meet. I told her I wouldn't mind having some drinks or having dinner altogether in one of the restaurants here. She still hasn't set up any date yet 'coz she wants to know first when we're all available, but I think the party's going to happen before December 17th. We'll see he he he he...I'm pretty excited about this!!!! ;-D
