Be careful what you wish for

So, as has been pointed out, I had intended to maintain a daily blog, and I've missed a couple of days

This is partly because, now schools are back open, I have a huge amount of work to catch up on so have been really busy.

And then yesterday morning caught me by surprise. I've now given up on our weather people - they don't seem to know their a**e from their elbow. The previous evening I hadn't checked the weather report as during the day there was nothing but warming...

Just a quick one then

Having major computer problems, so have had to drag out the old machine and get it's aged system to work - ever so slowly.

Am currently standing up as both shoulders are in a state of disrepair, so I can't carry a chair up to the office. Amazing how that inhibits my mental capacity. Then again, lack of sleep, and getting stuck 3 times in the car on snow and ice today may have taken it's toll. I'm not used to these conditions, and having 'sports' tires on the car doesn't help much....

Life Continues

The promised forecast of 10 - 30 cm of snow didn't materialise in any way, shape or form. The snow has been melting away, and despite there being the odd blizzard during the day, nothing settled.

Tonight we are forecast a clear night, not much in the way of rain/sleet/snow, and milder temperatures (up to a balmy 1c overnight). I'm hesitant to believe, given that they were so wrong about the last few 24 hours. However, I'm ever hopeful.

I may be a bad mum, but, much...

Sleepy and Sleepy

Nothing to say today. Have spent most of the day writing so my brain is worn out.

I'm watching Most Haunted and turned to my left and saw these two visions of sleepiness. I couldn't resist putting it up.

Just wish I could put a soundtrack up as Murphy on the left is snoring his head off

It's snow good complaining!

Well we had 4 inches of snow last night. It came down solidly for about 4 hours.

It reminds me of when I was a kid. All right I know it was over 40 years ago!

There used to be a period like this every winter, where there was an almost permanent white blanket across the land.

You'd be out all day, sledging, snow fighting etc etc. Then your Mother would shout.

'Your tea's ready,' and that was the end of another adventure. Aahh happy days...
