We may see some snow here today which is a rarity, and from what I hear dangerous to be driving in.

We were gifted with a Roku so we've been checking out movies and tv shows which has opened a new form of entertainment for us. I forgot to watch Downton Abbey on Sunday. I'll have to catch up.Liz@ HomeandGardeningWithLizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08470612105590699955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1276126907719997967.post-86176576271866047312016-01-19T10:22:42.155-05:002016-01-19T10:22:42.155-05:00Snow World is much different on the West side . . ...Snow World is much different on the West side . . . <br />It has been much too icy for me to walk outdoors. <br />I tried it earlier in the week with Snickers. We were both "slip, sliding away!"<br />I picked her up . . . took off through the deep snow, put her down, she kept falling in . . .<br />had to pick her up and carry her home. <br />We are taping Downton Season #6 for a winter day treat all in one.

Am absolutely loving this season - weddings, successful Edith and now the return of Robert! Am also watching a new series on Netflix - another British period piece - Dancing on the Edge. Thought of you when I was watching it as I know you like those period pieces too.

Sadly, I can't hear in theaters with my hearing loss. Still, it sounds good and maybe I'll watch it when it comes to my TV and I have CC.<br /><br />Your pup is so cute and I admire that you take these walks in the woods when the weather is so brutal. The rewards is that warm fire!!<br /><br />JaneBlondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1276126907719997967.post-33684790314319797722016-01-18T17:01:57.394-05:002016-01-18T17:01:57.394-05:00Loved Downton Abbey last night!

So very proud of Edith as well as Mrs. Hughes, now Mrs. Carson. :) Just hate that this is the last season!<br /><br />I think every American should see "13 Hours". There are such revelations for those that didn't follow this horrific event. Yes, it's infuriating too! <br /><br />Your dog is adorable!! Glad you enjoyed being outside in the fresh air ~ quite rejuvenating.<br /><br />xo<br />PatGypsy Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13212447439580468374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1276126907719997967.post-3347341025095619532016-01-18T16:45:03.406-05:002016-01-18T16:45:03.406-05:00Winter is the perfect time to sit by a fire, I do ...Winter is the perfect time to sit by a fire, I do while I'm knitting. I haven't watched last nights's episode of downtown abbey so I'm glad you didn't give too much away! Snow is on our ground and bitter cold today and snow forecasted for Wednesday.

I hate that this is the last season, but it seems like they are getting ready to tidy it all up for happy endings for us.

I'm so happy that Lady Edith seems to have found her groove and perhaps will be able to be happy. I wish the best for Lady Mary and did appreciate how she stepped up to help both Mrs. Hughes and Anna. And that final scene? Loved it! A sight for sore eyes!
