Snow Again!
When I was a child growing up in the Great Lakes State, the weather was very unpredictable. Michiganders such as myself were fond of saying, “If you don’t like the weather, just wait five minutes, It’ll change,” and it was true. We never knew what kind of weather we would see during the day.
Michiganders grow up expecting the unexpected, the trouble is I do not live in Michigan any more but I am still learning to expect the unexpected.
I woke up early this morning to the sound of a hard pounding rain. We were way past “raining cats and dogs,” I think Lake Michigan opened up on us and poured out of the sky. I worked a little while and decided that I could use a nap and went back to bed. I’ve always enjoyed sleeping through a nice rain storm or even a thunderstorm.
Then around 9 or 10 a.m. it began to snow – hard, it was really coming down. I woke up to more snow on the ground. I cannot believe I am saying this, but we have at least three inches of snow on the ground. It snowed all the way down to East Sonora.
I feel a little like Alice in Wonderland. Each time I open the front door, I am never sure what I will find on the other side.
Skechers Shape Ups
The sky was really dark, overcast and heavy this morning. Now, the sun is shining, the sky is clear and everywhere you look, snow is falling off the trees in huge clumps. Don’t forget the sunglasses today. You will need them.
Normally, I am all for the snow but I have to say that I am a little discouraged today. We made a trip to Kohl’s on Saturday (I can’t wait until our new Kohl’s Department store finally opens.) and picked up a pair of Skechers Shape Ups and I am really looking forward to getting outside and walking more. I guess it won’t be today. I love my new shoes and I’m certainly now wearing them out in the rain and snow.
