Earlier in the week, all of the snow had melted. It started again a couple of days ago and hasn’t stopped since. It is steady and heavy. Spring seems so far away.
cold, ever visiting
impossible to ignore
bones creak in the wind
I’ve been trying, Dwight. Sleeping 10 hours a day curled in a warm bed (2-hr nap and 8 at night.) This stuff is getting old fast. I want to be out on my bike in the sun!
Oh no, Max, that’s low for Nashville, isn’t it?
It’s 20F here right now. Supposed to snow for the next 7 days (that’s how far out my weather app goes) at least. Kids were supposed to come in to town to go bowling today, but I messaged them not to, maybe next weekend.
Actually, we have got below zero and usually at least once or twice a winter we get below zero. I sure hope it snows here so we can stay home and work.
So…the overnight forecast was just for snow showers. We got three inches. Heavy. Wet. Not easily navigated. However, the sun came out here mid-day. The birds started chirping. We’re all good. Tomorrow? Let us not speak of tomorrow…we’ll see.😊❄️

Cindy, I know you’re in the middle of summer, so it may be hard for you to relate to it. It’s friggin freezing out there!

Cheryl, would love to package some of this up and send it your way. The birds and squirrels and I have had enough of it.

p.s. loud, cold winds can bring power outages. Please stay warm, my friend.
