I hate to be boring and talk about the weather, but really, this is ridiculous. I posted some snow pictures early last week. We had snow, plenty of it. Turns out, we got another 14-16 inches this past weekend. Something our city is ill-equipped to deal with. No side roads are getting plowed. You should see the hideous piles of snow on our street. Parking is atrocious. People can’t walk on the sidewalks anywhere in town, so they’re walking in the street. Yes, even on the busy roads. It’s beyond dangerous. People were/are without power, living in shelters and generally unable to cope with this much snow. We haven’t had a full day of school in surrounding areas in almost two weeks. And now, on top of it? It’s supposed to snow again. Argh.
Look, there’s a reason I moved from North Dakota. There’s a reason I’ve lived here for almost a decade. Because we’re not supposed to get much snow. That’s how it works, that’s the deal. I hate snow. I lived with 5 plus feet of it every winter for several decades. I had enough. Please no more. Pleeeaasssee.
Wow. I’ll stop complaining about the rain now!
Yikes! Sorry! Hope it warms up soon
What Lynne said.
Oh, I’m sorry. Hopefully this next round will be the end for a while.
We just moved a little further south, and while we got the first round, we didn’t get the second and shouldn’t get the third. I’m grateful, but my kids are annoyed. Record snowfalls– and we moved away! Mom, what WERE you thinking??? Think of all the school we could have missed!
But yes, living in a place that isn’t equipped for much snow and getting huge amounts of it can be a very serious problem. I hope the rest of the winter is mild!
Doesn’t snow here but once a decade.
Just saying.
Move.
Here.
See, there’s your problem. You’re waving a white flag at Father Winter.
White.
Run, do not walk, to Target and get one with, oh, a sunflower on it. Start waving that puppy around and see what happens.
It’s worth a shot!
