There are so many song lyrics that are so fitting right now. But, NEVER have I seen SOOO much SNOW!!! I am in disbelief and shock! I love it however, unless it prohibits me from getting home to Arizona for the Holidays.
I was joyful when the first snowfall hit, a little less than a week ago. It was a fun change, especially since I haven't seen snow in a loooong time. Then....the second snowfall hit and I had to drive to work in it. Yuck. So the snow is super fun to drive in when you have the whole road to yourself and it doesn't matter if you spin out or swerve all over the place. It's a completely different story when the roads are packed with people trying to get to work and the roads haven't been plowed yet. Let's just say I survived!!
Then the THIRD snowfall hit today after school. It's crazy I tell you, just plain crazy! I would have never imagined this much snow. Needless to say, it's been fabulous wearing my moon boots all over the place, even to school. My students got a kick out of it! One student told me, "If only we were friends Miss Anderson.....we'd have so much fun!"
The sad part is I haven't had even a second to play in it....even build a snowman, even sled down a hill, even throw a snowball at an unsuspecting person. And tomorrow I'm leaving....I have to say goodbye to this Winter Wonderland. I guess I won't miss the freezing glacial arctic frosty bitter icy cold numbness I feel every time I step outside. Even my car has icycles on it for goodness sake! Icycle....that's a very strange-looking word, don't ya think?
These are the views outside my school and apartment. I'll let you decipher which one is which...... And it IS snowing on both accounts!
