Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow....NO!!!

I like the looks of snow. 

I like a good Christmas card with a snow scene on it.

I like watching flakes of snow drifting slowly from the sky and lighting gently on the grass, the trees, the deck, the sidewalk.

And that's about it.

After that I just do not like snow.

I don't like to drive in it.

I don't like the slush when it melts.

I don't like how dirty it is once it is plowed and cars and trucks drive through it.

I don't like the wet mess all over the rugs inside the doors and the mess under the wet boots drying on the mats.

I do like winter clothes.  Sweaters.  Vests.  Long pants.  Boots. Heavy socks.  Down coats.  Gloves. Hats. Scarves.

I like those, and I like to wear those.

But driving in snow?  Horrible experiences. 

Walking through snow to get to the barn to do the chores?  It took forever, and I felt frozen.

This morning when the alarm went off at 6, there was an alert on my phone that snow was beginning at 5:35.

It did.

Fortunately the snow was light and covered the ground somewhat, but that was all

When I left the fitness center, there was a need for my wipers to be on the lowest speed to clear off the wet droplets that were accumulating.  I can handle that.

And now the snow has stopped.  Good deal.

More snow is forecast for next week.  Just remember the title of this post....Let It Snow...Let It Snow....Let It Snow...NO NO NO NO NO
