If the long-range forecast is correct, by spring I will despise it. That though remains a mere prospect. This morning, the snowfall looks beautiful and is welcomed. With winter temperatures, give me snow.
Snow was recorded November 9 at O'Hare, but there was not enough to be measured. December 2 I saw traces of snow on the ground around the edges of our yard. December 9 was the first official measurable snowfall of the season. Today, though, is real. There will not be enough snow to fire up the orange beast, but the children's cars will need to be brushed off before driving and I may need to shovel the drive.
The cats puff up their fur and just keep staring out the windows. I do not know if they have forgotten the blizzard from last year and wonder what the white wetness is, or if they do remember and are staring in disgust.
For now, the snow is beautiful.

Nice blog! I especially like the CAT comment! If they are like me, they are staring in disgust! HA! Last winter was the WORST winter we ever had - at least in my memory! I hope it's not as bad this year. (The WORST winter, believe it or not, was followed by the WORST summer ever!) Hang in there & STAY WARM! :)
