Mr. Weather Dude said Tuesday night that Wednesday would be cold but there might be a “dusting” of snow to the north and west…………uhhuh………..yeah……….OK……….I can work with that! Right? Wrong! If that was a dusting we got today – even though it was only an inch or so – I’ll be a monkey’s uncle (and that would be interesting since I’m a CAT!!!!).
Just a bit of snow early on – didn’t stick to the roads in our town – and out here it looked like this:
Not much on the Leyland cypress at the top of the driveway……BIG flakes though!
Seriously………….why not say “there’s a chance of snow throughout the Washington, DC region tomorrow”………..then we’re prepared…………we sorta know that we very well could have snow. Plans could be made accordingly. BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Good thing my Mom and Dad are retired and didn’t HAVE to go somewhere because the “dusting” we got turned out to be VERY slick……….Thank heavens for 4-wheel drive because my Dad – believing that there would be if ANY snow, a “dusting” left the house to run a lot of errands……..he was inside a store shopping for an hour and came out to a snowstorm of sorts…….BIG FAT JUICY FLAKES – no dust in sight. HAHAHA He got home alright of course and made it up our uphill driveway thanks to the Blazer……..
So you know how I complain all the time about the weather? (If you don’t know that you should because I’m either griping about the rain or the snow or the temperature!) I’m registering a complaint about the weather this time for sure.
Maybe I’m just getting really crotchety in my old age……….maybe I should just be glad I’m here PERIOD regardless of what’s going on with the weather. After all, Mom and I were snug inside the house – I had access to her lap when she wasn’t on the computer – so why should I complain?
MAYBE just because I CAN complain………….age has its’ privileges after all!!!
