THE SNOW!!!!!

It's snowing again! Just when I thought it was over, expecting over half of a foot.

We had a couple of days of cold and snowy weather here. Today all the snow is melted and it is about 55. It is supposed to be in the 70's next week. It couldn't come a day too early I have to say. I lived in Buffalo a good part of my life and at the time it really didn't bother me. I could never do that now. My friend called me from there last night and she is losing her mind with all the cold and snow.

I am losing my mind too!

The dog doesn't even want to go outside.

I'm hoping to be able to watch Fourth of July fireworks on my deck without having to shovel and wear a parka and gloves.

I'm sorry for those of you who are sick of it, but I wish you could send some my way! We had 7" two days ago for the first time in about 6 years, and it's already almost completely gone. It was so beautiful - I want some more!

I visited Raleigh during the new year and I'm thinking about relocating but it's a bit too hot in the summers for me. We haven't had this much snow in years.

We're finally supposed to get temps up above 40 later this week. I might finally see my street that hasn't been plowed or salted all winter.

What's frustrating to me is that the weather forecasters have been so far off on just about every storm this year. They say that they can't predict even days ahead because of the variations of the patterns but geesh, they can't get it right even hours before! They predict a foot we get a dusting, they predict an inch or less and we get 8 - 10 inches.

I'll say one thing though, we keep getting that freshening layer, so it stays looking pretty and white instead of grungy brown!

When most of the northeast got walloped with snow on Wednesday we got rain and I was so happy because I could see the grass again. But today's snowfall is taking care of that, I'm so tired of digging my car out.

It'll end when winter is over. I lived in an area along one of the great lakes where it wasn't unusual to get 100 inches a year and people that lived there just knew you dealt with it, period. It's winter, it's cold, it snows. I feel for those living in the south, they're not used to it and don't have the road equipment to deal with it and besides, don't have a clue how to drive in it.

I hear you. I am absolutely sick of it. It snowed yet again last night. I have never been so ready for spring as I am this year.

OMG that's to funny! Made me think of our Memorial Day parade last year. We were wearing winter coats and hoods. In the 16 years we've been going to that parade that was the only year we weren't in shorts.

Signs of the times? Many are saying so.

I am tired of winter....it looks nice coming down, but for most of us who have to work, it is a pain in the behind.

I've lost faith that it's going to end anytime soon. 4-6 inches in the forecast for Monday.
