Blizzard approaching
I'd rather find warm sunshine
instead of Nemo.

ReplyDeleteIt's this white stuff that is like a zillion snow cones being dumped all over the place! No choice of flavors, though!!

ReplyDeleteYikes! Stay warm and be careful! :-)
ReplyDeleteand here it is! looks like a beautiful snow globe out my windows... I was remembering back to the first year we lived in this house and my daughters were little... the snow was so high against the sliders it was above their heads! I had never seen so much snow in my life... I think we are about to see a repeat... but now my youngest is taller than me it will just be up to her long legged knees I think:-) Stay warm and safe.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you... alas Nemo is finding us!! Stay warm! Your haiku is spot on!!
ReplyDeleteWhen did they start naming snow storms?
ReplyDeleteI also love the 3-30" forecast...around here.

Looking at the snow drifts against my window...too much snow, whatever the amount. Like you, I dream of different climes...
