Like so many other places, we’ve been experiencing such mild, autumnal temperatures, it hasn’t felt much like winter at all.
The Mister woke me with, “You got your winter wonderland.”
As soon as I opened the curtains, Cletus the Dog Kitten jumped up to bat at the snow.
Old Man Winter has finally come to his senses.

I was fooled into thinking we were going to have a 45-degree day. That’s what my weather app said. But now I’m looking out my window at a fresh blanket of white. Hmm, something’s amiss, me thinks.

Right? We had rain for days before this. It may well be rain that melts it. Weird winter is weird.

You said the magic word Joey: weird. We went to Cabezítas’ soccer game for 2pm and weather was balmy and raining. Got out of the soccer centre around 3:15 and it was blustery and snowing and Fuh-reeeeezing!

I love snow, unless I have to drive in it. I can drive in it just fine, but so many people can’t, it makes me a bit nervous. I’ve had a lot of it already, so I am pretty glad to be somewhere it is rare now.

Looks beautiful. Woke up this morning to snow as well. A bit of a rarity here and it looks like it’ll mostly be gone by tomorrow or so.

At least it’s a Sunday, and not a day when everyone has to be somewhere at an early hour. We can slow down and just enjoy the beauty. 🙂

Right? I knew it was coming, so I went to the store yesterday, sent The Mister out to fill up my car. I’m settled.
LOL I even arranged that I would take the dog out tonight for last call if he takes the girls to school tomorrow 😀

You know how to arrange a great snow schedule! Of course, that’s assuming the girls have school tomorrow. 😉
