My Desktop is Cooler than Yours*

Posted on March 8, 2012 by BrassyDel

Fortunately there’s no sound, otherwise it would be barkier than yours, too. Like a typical chick, I change my desktop wallpaper fairly often. Every month or two, or I may go through a phase of putting up a new photo every few days for awhile. While looking for a photo for last Thursday’s Snow Day post, I came across this…

Snow Day

Posted on March 1, 2012 by BrassyDel

We had a lot of snow dump all at once a couple weeks ago. It’s been a ridiculously warm winter for here in central Colorado, but I’m not complaining too much. Snow can be fun to play in, especially if you are a Pixie or a Matti, but I’m not a fan of driving in it. Or of paying for…

On The Catwalk

Posted on January 20, 2011 by BrassyDel

Yesterday we got only a small amount of snow, but the weather conditions were just perfect for Mother Nature to issue a big, laughing, one-finger gesture to all of the rush hour drivers in Boulder (which included The Hubbles). He stayed at a friend’s house, who lives about 5 minutes from The Hub’s work, and yet it still took over…

Matti Says PBBBTTTHHHTT!

Posted on November 13, 2010 by BrassyDel

I almost used this photo for Thursday’s post about snow, but opted for the one where it looked like he was smiling. Matti smiles all the time, but it’s kind of hard to get it on camera. When you ask one of the dogs to hold still or stay they freeze up and look oh so serious. This one? I…

November Flurries

Posted on November 11, 2010 by BrassyDel

A couple days ago, we finally got our first snow of the season. Not that I would have minded waiting much longer for it, rather it’s just an oddity. Sometimes we get snowfall as early as September! Tuesday’s snow was basically a dusting, followed by more dusting today. It’s been snowing off and on since sometime last night, but the…

Welcome to Colorado

Posted on March 17, 2010 by BrassyDel

Today, it is absolutely gorgeous outside. The sun is shining, squirrels are frolicking, and Tank is barking like a nutter. According to weather.com, the imminent forcast is a high of 67 F today (Wed.) and 65 F tomorrow (Thurs). Friday is a high of 34 F and a 90% chance of snow. Well, then. So much for gardening this weekend…

Damien: the Feline Retrospective

Posted on January 12, 2010 by BrassyDel

August 9th, 2001: My boyfriend and I walked into the Human Society of Boulder Valley. Shortly thereafter, we left with a cardboard box containing what we would soon learn was the Best Cat Ever. Sure, he had a tooth rotting in his mouth and was unable to eat dry food, but that was quickly remedied at the Vet’s. When we…

Body After Baby Challenge – Week 6

Posted on November 4, 2009 by BrassyDel

Yesterday marked the beginning of Week 6 of MamaNotes.com‘s Body after Baby Challenge. Week 5 Recap I don’t really want to talk about Week 5. It snowed. A lot. We got about 28 inches of snow Wednesday and Thursday, and it was dark and cold and dreary and very Seasonal Affective Disorder up in here. I ate chocolate, and peanut…

Blizzard ’09

Posted on March 26, 2009 by BrassyDel

Today we’re having a blizzard. And why not? It was in the 70’s last week and it was 55 F yesterday. There was apparently a light dusting at around 7am when the hubby went in to work, and by 10am they were sending everyone home. It took him 4 hours to make what is normally a 25 minute commute. The…
