On Thursday it snowed, so on Friday Hayley and I went outside and did this:
(She wanted to know if I could leave my scarf there to keep his neck warm. I said he could learn to knit his own damn Gryffindor scarf.)
On Saturday we got up and left home before 10 am to go to the library’s story time and she was disappointed that her snowman was going to melt because the grass was showing again.
And today it rained all day. Which was fine, that’s what Spring is about, April showers for the May flowers blablabla. And then tonight it suddenly turned to snow, thanks to that giant system ripping its way up the East coast, and at 9 :15 pm out my front window it looked like this:
It’s 12:15 am now, three hours later and the snow is three times as deep and heavy out there. It’s coming down so heavily that you would swear it’s mid-winter. Supposedly the winds are going to gust up to 80km/hr tonight which will pretty much make any driving hell and they’re advising people to call the airlines because flights are being grounded all over the place. Blargh.
I would say I’m moving south but they’re all getting crazy weather too. Somewhere in Florida they had a tornado today.
Dear Al Gore,
Please send help. Thanks.
Your fan,
Sherry who is fed up of this stupid weather, global warming sucks, yay green.
It’s the snowman who lived!
that’s just wrong.
I’m glad H is still happy about snow – it’s making my girls cry!
Poor cold snowman.
No kidding. The flight arrived with a 30 minute delay, then was snowed under while being unloaded and loaded, like 10 inches of snow on the wings. Then we had to go trough de-icing (took at least 15 minutes) so by the time we made it to the runway it was covered in snow again (and we’d seen the ploughs at work while waiting until everybody got on board and seated).
So we had a good view of the airport while the plane made a sight seeing tour of it just to make it to another runway at the other side of the airport. But we got away allright, just delayed enough to have me miss my connection flight and being put on the next one.
To top the day of the railway company was on strike. I was home around 6 PM instead of noon.
My goodness! From that top-down angle on the photo Hayley looks just like you!!!
