What I want to see.....

Hello everyone!

I am sitting here just stymied by the fact that our weather here has been all kinds of strange! Very few here around these parts are complaining. Only some of us are! Because it is January and there is no snow! We've had nearly zippo in the snow department! And I'm sorry folks but one of the things I LOVE about living here in the midwest is that I get four different seasons every year! Unfortunately, this year, this winter, when I look out my window or go out for a walk, I see a winter more like the winters I experienced in Florida! And let me just say, I am not happy!

This is the kind of scene I've been witnessing!

Very UN-winter like for around here! Other than the porch swing being hung up for the winter, everything else looks like what you'd see in Florida. (Sorry, I keep picking on Florida because I wasn't too keen on the place when we lived there.) (Okay, okay, so I'm still not so keen on the place! There I admitted it!) Sheesh.

There's been talk of snow off and on for the last month or so, but nothing of any merit has fallen. What I want to see when I look out my window or go walking about is,

something like this....

Or this...

or this...

So this week end we will be going on a road trip. Just a short one to sing Happy Birthday to Baby Girl! And, wouldn't you know it... the forecast is for blizzard like conditions beginning Sunday afternoon. Not happy about that but, you never know. The weather people have been saying things like this for the last couple months and we've gotten only mild winds with a little bit of the white stuff. ('course we didn't have to do any traveling when they forecasted that all the other times....) Ah well, it'll be nice to spend time with baby girl regardless!

Well, I hope that the next time I show you pictures of our place, it'll be surrounded by lot's of white stuff! ;-) Have a great day!
