Monday, snow in the forecast, but they lied according to Nora.

Yesterday's high 60's gave way to today's low 30's and big fat snowflakes.


We were hoping for a nice pile of snow and a day off from school, but the big storm bypassed us, gracing us with heavy leaden skies, cold temps and a few snowflakes that promptly melted.


The kids miss sledding and iceskating on the pond on the farm in Virginia, but I continue to remind them that we have probably had colder temperatures here in mountainous southwest Texas so far, and from what I have heard, the pond is far from freezing.


To be quite honest, I don't miss the snow and ice at all! And take a wild guess as to how I feel about not having to feed the woodstove in the middle of the night?

I also don't miss feeding the woodstove but I was not happy about getting that oil tank filled!
