For a person who spent most of this winter freezing tushie…I can’t be sad that our weather has taken a turn for the better (and warmer); however, for my grandchildren who are coming to visit from a much warmer state, I am sad. They have been hearing about the record snowfall this year here and have been looking forward to playing in the snow. Last night it rained all night long…surprising us with such a meltdown of snow…that, I personally can’t believe I didn’t wake up in another land, like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. A Spring fling has decided to tease us this February…we didn’t even get our traditional January thaw like usual.
The temperatures have gone from single digits to the 50 degree mark in less than a week. All this next week, it will be warmer than normal. This does not bode well for getting some recovery snow to at least blanket the ground with a soft white appearance for the grandchildren. The fates are against them seeing the kind of snow of a kids dreams.
On the other hand, as a person who pays, and pays dearly, to warm up a big old farm house during these wintry days…I can’t be truly sad about the snow loss. 🙂 I have a secret desire to feel a tropical heatwave…shhhhhh….don’t tell my grandbabies!!!!
