It's beautiful out today, even if it is cold and bad driving weather. The ice storm from yesterday afternoon and evening coated all the trees with ice and icicles, and everything looks like it's been frosted over. I hate cold, but the way it looks outside right now almost makes me change my mind.
At any rate, I was reading in my devotions this morning, and came across this Psalm, and I thought it particularly appropriate, and therefore I am posting it here.
How great is our God!
Psalm 147:12-20 (also, the whole rest of the Psalm is amazing.. :))
Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion!
For He has strengthened the bars of your gates; He has blessed your sons within you.
He makes peace in your borders; He satisfies you with the finest of the wheat.
He sends forth His command to the earth; His word runs very swiftly.
He gives snow like wool; He scatters frost like ashes.
He casts forth His ice as fragments; Who can stand before His cold?
He sends forth His word and melts them; He causes His winds to blow and the waters to flow.
He declares His words to Jacob, His statutes and ordinances to Israel.
He has not dealt thus with any nation; And as for His ordinances, they have not known them.
Praise the Lord!

Valentime's day
Adam's parents are in town for the weekend, they got in last night.
Adam and I did a bit of V-day celebrating early, this past Monday; we got take out from Panera, bought a season of The Office, and stayed in. It snowed quite a bit that night, and it was Adam's first "real" snow. We had lots of slush the next morning... whee!
Jack (my boston terrier) loved the snow. When we let our dogs out Tuesday morning, he went crazy. Sally, being a priss, didn't want to play, but Jack ran around and around anyway, and then started eating snow.
The snow is mostly melted, but the temperature's warmed and then dropped, so the snow melted and then froze over, so it was mostly ice. Which is not good, for a person of my precarious balancing capability. However, now it's mostly melted into slush, which is better.
At any rate, I'm signing off.
