Let It Snow Let It Snow
The kids and I woke up this morning to a BLIZZARD - yup, on April 24th there’s a blizzard outside.
Â
They’re predicting anywhere from 10-14 inches of snow where I live (however 8 miles south in town they don’t have accumulation yet!) The drive to school was awful because here in Colorado, they don’t know how to use snowplows. All the public schools are closed, but Jason and Keira go to a Montessori school so they’re almost always open. I’m guessing I’ll be playing the part of the part-time single working mother today and picking them up early so they can play at home while I work from home (which I do not like to do - I much prefer to go in to the office!).
I won’t complain though - being a Minnesotan I LOVE the snow and I really miss winter. AND, I can’t wait to use my snowblower one last time this season. So here’s to spring snowstorms in Colorado - gotta love ‘em!
What kind of weather are you enjoying?

Hey, Jodie! We’re having a thunderstorm here.
How much snow did you get? We got 6 inches of rain last night!
We got 12 inches of heavy wet snow! Our poor trees . . . we have tons of tall ponderosa pine . . . a few of them snapped right in half from the weight - others were bent all the way over to the ground - I don’t think they’ll make it
We were without electricity from 10:00 p.m. last night until 8:00 a.m. today - then again from 9:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. It was a bit chilly in the house this a.m.! Got a good fire roaring in the fireplace right now.
