Fed up!

Enough with the snow already! I've just about had it with the white stuff. We have five-foot snow banks at the end of our driveway. Every morning we hold our breath and pull out onto the street. Hoping that no one else is driving by at breakneck speed. Because you can't see a damn thing over these mountains!

To make matters worse, the temperature is not cooperating. We have a day or two of warmer weather which causes some melting. The snowbanks begin to avalanche onto the street. Before the plow can come by, the temperature drops and the banks freeze up. The street is becoming narrower each day. There's barely enough room for two cars to pass now.

I can't wait for the next snowfall (dripping sarcasm).

Wait ... that's tonight.

Yet another 5 cm.

Thanks Mother Nature!

I was flipping through the pictures on my camera. And I came across these. They made me happy. When we bought the house six years ago, we bought our flowers at the local nursery. Expensive, but pretty. Last summer, The Husband decided to try something different. Walmart. Why not? The Husband insisted on taking pictures. "There's no way anyone's going to believe we got these at Wally World!"

Aren't they lovely?

Doesn't it just make you ache for summer?
