Let It Snow, Again?!
We are getting another big snow! Sometime tonight, the flakes shall begin their decent and join the leftover, too cold to melt preexisting Snow. Seems many folks are just plain fed up with the 'white stuff' in general. Hearing the irritation, makes me sad, because I'm Snow's number one fan! My adoration of the fluff, overrides the inevitable work and mess of melted flakes in our basement.
I suggested to the Clouds (in an effort to better represent their original appeal), that the delicate, sparkly bits of heaven, try something new; Behave. As sweetly mischievous as it tends to be, the Snow Clouds only winked and grinned, making no commitment to my pleas of reason. In order to be welcomed with open arms in the future, the Snow must comply, if only a little...right?
We'll see.
So, if you wake up tomorrow and the roads are clear, the power is on, and people toss out their shovels--for lack of need, you'll know immediately, the Snow listened! Behaving in spite of itself; coating only the hills, and yards, while simultaneously making speed bumps and ramps for sledders.
Please, my dear Lovelies near and far, if you're in snow, make a snowman for me, it will make you smile-I promise! (as long as your cheeks don't freeze in the process, but we're not going there! lol) Then, defrost yourself with some hot chocolate! See, I've got a head start!
Forgive me, I can't get on board with this whole hatin' the snow, I've got snow bunny in my blood!!
Wishing you fun, regardless of the weather,
Melinda

Your "let it snow, not, let it snow, not" did not work! So I know you are very glad.....its sure beautiful out my way, and it sounds as though you will get the snow, yup, you will get the snow, yup, more than I........and the wherewithal to do a snowman or two.

My sentiments exactly, Melinda! It isn't all about the snow with us. The snow is the underlying theme for all that comes along with it; hot cocoa, snuggling, extra quilts,the perfect chaos of playing in the snow and then the routine of peeling off the wet miserable clothes and the warm bath that is waiting afterwards. All of that wrapped together is "snow". So, the more the better if you ask me!
