Mid day and it's still raining. Everything is covered in a coating of clear ice. Branches cracking and falling from the weight, covering the yard. The whole family is just hanging, still in pajamas, watching the rain.
Trying to muster the energy to ride the trainer. No reason not to, just am so warm and cozy in my jammies and blanket by the fire. I'm acutely aware of the Girl, downstairs in the cold basement. Waiting..
*sigh*
Well I never got on the bike. I did, however, shovel the driveway and take a walk assessing the damage. Trees down everywhere. I can't even walk through my yard. My poor huge maple in the back is but a shadow of its former self, all of its majestic branches in heaps on the ground :( Ice still covering everything.
UPS guy came by (I guess neither rain nor sleet stops them either). I got all excited b/c I thought it might be my new saddle!! Alas, it was a package for a neighbor.
Spring cannot get here soon enough for me.
Amen! It started snowing here last night and looks like it has finally stopped.Quote:

Not sure of the official amount (was about 10" at 5 p.m.) and more is threatened for tonight. Ick.
Then I thank every deity available that I don't live in upstate New York and have to face a bazillion inches of snow.:eek:
