Speaking of snow, I don't know how many other areas have this service, but I found out just this year about "Snow Angels." They're volunteers who will come to your house and dig out your car and shovel your steps, walk, driveway, sidewalk, etc.

In order to sign up, you have to be over 50 and/or have some kind of physical impairment. I got a call last week that my application was approved. They told me I would get a call in advance, and that the volunteers would show up wearing orange vests (so as to be readily identifiable), and that they do not accept tips under any circumstances. I asked if hot chocolate and cookies were okay, and they said yes. :)

That sounds really nice, but I just checked and the closest Snow Angels is 110 miles away from me in Syracuse, NY. :(

Glad you got it tho'. :)

We had overnight snow- about an inch, but it sprinkled snow off and on all day- it's sticking, too (and it's been cold, around 30-32 degrees all day). :coldout:

And now for a test: :facepalm:

This is an interactive version of the MACH-IV test of Machiavellianism.

"Introduction

Niccolò Machiavelli (1469–1527) was an Italian politician and philosopher who is famous for his advocacy of political ethics that hold effectiveness as more important that morality. He is the source of the phrase "the ends justify the means".

In the 1960s, social psychologists Richard Christie and Florence L. Geis, who collected statements from Machiavelli's writings and asked people how much they agreed with each, concluded that Machiavellianism exists as a distinct personality trait. They published the MACH-IV in 1970 and it has been a popular instrument ever since.

Procedure

The test consists of twenty items. Each item is a statement that you must indicate how accurate it would be when applied to you. It should take 2 - 5 minutes to complete..."

------------------------------------------------------------------

My score was 48 of 100.

"This puts you in the category of the low Machs, people who will hold out for the goodness of the world and avoid manipulation. Not the people Machiavelli would approve of."

Wonder what score the murderer would have????

YoNo, I scored 57 on the Machiavelli quiz. I am a low Mach and he wouldn't like me.

My son is spending the weekend with his friend, Amanda in Binghamton.

It's been pretty quiet here- could say the quiet is deafening since I'm not use to it. :facepalm:

But I do enjoy just having The Queen and Milo the cat around. Didn't have to make dinner- always a plus, IMO.

Quiet nights-- ahhhhhhhh :)

I wanted to share this with you as you all have been so kind towards the Biden Family. Normally there is a family picture. Last year, they used a pic from the summer when they were white water rafting. The artist that painted the pic of the BP residence is a Delaware artist, Mary Page Evans.
 
Anna and I have the Secret Garden and the Enchanted Garden, and many more. They are more detailed and have things hidden for you to find. Goggle Enchanted Garden (they also have Enchanted Forest) and click on images.

I would imagine it's hard to use a family pic without their son if it was their tradition to do so. Just another layer of sadness for them.
 
The reason for the season.
