SUNNY MORNING

Okay, yes, it's sunny out right now and I got my hopes up and then I looked at the weather and, rats, there is supposed to be snow this afternoon, which probably means that the predicted high of 41 will occur early in the day and then go down. Tomorrow the high is supposed to be only 29 and I don't see a sun looking back at me from the little forecast chart.

We've had this really mild winter and now we are very much area of the possibility of a cold spring, a delayed spring, a spring of uncharacteristic snowstorms. We can't evern feel a surge of relief from constant snow and freezing fingers now that February is in its last week . . . because we haven't had much snow nor freezing fingers - you know the kind you get when you try to get the snow and ice off your car and your gloves get wet and stiff and then some of the snow you're pushing gets down inside your gloves and goes up your sleeve . . .

Not that I'm complaining about not being snowed in . . . but I have this fear we are going to have to pay for it.
