"Mom, there is ice in my outside water bowl! I like ice."
Today I am thankful for a place to shelter inside. I know The Prisoner and Ember are also thankful to have a warm refuge when the first snowflakes dance in the air, as they did on Sunday morning. The temperatures outside are stronger this morning, and the wind is making the "feels like" temperature even colder.
Having a place to "hunker down" is certainly worthy of gratitude.
Yes, it is. I like snow but I love sipping hot chocolate and watching it fall from my nice cozy couch.
ReplyDeleteIt didn't stick, so didn't count, but I saw it! I'm with you on how to treat the real stuff when it comes. So is my DIL. They did indoor adventuring at a state park on Sunday.
DeleteThe snow flew last night, too. Just snow on the grass. But it is very cold. Made it to 32F and on the way down. And winds from the NW, CHILLY. Stay warm

You stay warm, too. We're going to get four or five milder days starting Tuesday.
DeleteI was amused to see the "freeze" warning in the southern states, including Florida, when here in balmy New Jersey we are expecting chill tonight and a high of 43 tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteWe now qualify as having had our first "hard freeze". But we will bounce back with a predicted high of 67 on Tuesday.
DeleteWe had a couple of brief mornings of frost 2 wks ago, but now we're already back to mid-80's... My son keeps asking "When's it gonna get cold??"
ReplyDeleteEight days later, now, from original entry, it's about to dip a bit, but still warmer than "average" for this time of year. I am not looking forward to the darkness or the cold of Winter, but it's only 33 days until the minutes of sunlight start increasing again!
