    1. Looks like only a couple here. It's not so much the snow I object to as the cold that goes with it.

  2. I feel your pain, sorta. That could be any month betwix Sept. and mid-June here, so once again, 'Dear Abby, dear Abby......."
    Draw the curtains, mix a mint julep......

    1. Yeah, but I CHOSE to live in a warmer area. If I got this between September and June I wouldn't be complaining - I'd be dead. Not a fan of mint drinks, but I will have pizza and beer tonight.

  3. Its pretty though, but you are right, not a happy camper to see this in March. But then sometimes they don't tend to stick around like say a January snow?

    1. True. We're just a little entitled about our Springs down here!

  5. Ignore the snow, just stay inside, have some good food and wine, and get cosy.

  8. Ok I agree about not liking snow much but there is worse weather. Those twisters don't go over well. We got nine inches of white from the sky here.

    1. Sure, and tsunamis are also bad. Also volcanic eruptions. I wasn't claiming we got the worst weather the world has ever experienced.

  9. Oh, you definitely need a toasty woodstove and a touch of brandy to pass the cold away.

    1. Hi, and welcome. We're already up to high 40's today, so it's improving!

  10. Your title made me chuckle...thanks for the laughter.

    Those tree limbs seem to be holding up very well though and I'm sure it will be forgotten history soon enough.

    I have a folder full of pics I never got around to post of tree branches touching the ground and tree trunks split vertically from the weight of this years snow.

    1. You're welcome! I lost a few dogwood limbs in an earlier, heavier snow. Made me sad to see them fall.

  11. It's known as "Sheila's Brush" around these parts. The last swipe of winter....you are ahead of us but we're ducking.

    Stay warm.

    1. We call it a Dogwood Winter. Well, actually, that would be more in April.

  14. this would make a northern girl crabby, too!

    ReplyDelete
  15. Definitely! It makes this northern gal think you know how I feel all winter.

  16. We were to supposedly get hit with A LOT of snow yesterday, but missed it. And I'm actually glad because I had a trip in NYC planned yesterday, therefore the snow would have caused several delays. We just got a lot of heavy winds and rain.

    Even me, who loves winter, will be glad to see some Spring soon.

    OMG....can you believe I just said that? HA!

  17. I was promised snow for two days and didn't get any. I am very upset. We should switch locations.

  18. I know in my heart that Ohio will get snow on either the first day of Spring or sometime afterwards, because that's how we roll. That's how to make a northern (well northeastern I suppose) girl crabby.

  19. If we got snow, ever, we'd think the world might be ending ;-) I am with you, Secret...being cold is not cool!

    1. We expect it here, I just got lulled into thinking we were done with winter.

  20. Aw, so sorry. Have to admit, even I am about ready to trade my skis for a flyrod!

  21. Sorry, just can't feel your pain.
    Agree that spring is eagerly awaited.
