WE ALL SHOULD BE THAT EXCITED ABOUT SNOW

Just Wanna Have FUN!

Remember when you were excited about the snow.  It was during the time we called childhood. Remember childhood and snowsuits?  Dogs still have fun in the snow and it is fun to watch them.

Maybe grandchildren can make you excited about snow again, but I have my doubts.

Horses seemed to be doing well with their wet backs and frozen manes and tails.

Living on a long dead end gravel road has made me scared of snow.  One year we got a car and two tractors stuck trying to get out of our road.  Last year we were snowbound for two days and it felt like being born again when we got out.  The city snow truck was stuck on our road for over an hour. When the weather turned decent, we got new gravel in the bad stuck place.  That bad place is still doing good this year.

Today was a low-nervous snow day.  It didn’t look that bad. We guessed four inches of non-blowing snow.  Non-blowing is an important word.  It’s the opposite of the evil drifting word. Drifting is a bad word in my world in the winter.

The dogs, Justine and Heidi, had a fun time of it.  The horses have round baled hay to eat.  I can make it to the barn and get them water. Plus, they have a stock tank filled with noxious water, but at least it’s melted.

I need to get that stock tank emptied when the weather gets decent and fill it up again with good water.

OK!  I’m excited about the snow.  I just managed to drive out and get to the Subway!  SAVED!

I just can’t find that fun excitement about snow in me anymore.

    it’s fun to watch when you are retired & don’t HAVE to get out & it’s the home-owners problem.
