This is my decree. There shall be no more winter weather this year. We've had our one requisite nasty snowfall. It came just at the beginning of the morning rush hour. There was no time for the roads to be cleared, nor was there time for scools to cancel or delay, the first run of busses had already hit the road when it began. So, as I drove in terror to work with the anti-lock brakes grabbing every few seconds, I had yet another thing to worry about, my youngest son was on the same treacherous roads in one of our district's ancient school busses. I wish that I had told him to stay home. Not that he'd have listened. Missing a day of school is no fun when your teachers force you to make up every petty little thing that you've missed. But that's another rant...
Skiers be damned, I want this whole winter thing to go away, NOW! Certainly I laugh as hard as anyone when someone is stupid enough to do something like this... (Yeah, I've been waiting a long time to find a use for that smiley.) I can even enjoy the beauty of the snowfall on the fields and trees. If only that was the only place that it landed.
Another reason for my declaration of the end of winter is all of the freaking cold weather that comes with it. I hate being cold! I think I just might pack up my stuff and run away to the tropics...
I could actually enjoy this cold snowy weather if only I came home to find that I had this to keep me warm...
Alas I do not...
~ This concludes my little pity party for the day. ~
