What do April snow showers bring??
- cold
- depression
- wet socks and shoes
- birds in hiding
- slipping and sliding down the hill to my car after work
- a general, overall foul mood
As I was leaving work, this is what I saw: a beautiful winter wonderland at 4,500 feet....in April.
Even the birds were taking shelter under a pine tree as the snow was too much for them.
I got home from work and could have shoveled the driveway, but decided that was just too much for me in spring. I sadly looked at all our tulip stems coming up, now covered in snow.
The worst part was the snow was heavy and slushy. I really could have been wearing boots today because there was so much wet slush. Both dh and I came home with wet shoes and pants cuffs and drenched socks. Not fun. I'd much rather go back to the 70+ degree days we had awhile back. I guess those days were just teasers.
Wow! We always have one last snowstorm in April as well, but it's looking like it might not happen this year... gotta wait and see!
ReplyDeleteMY goodness! Where do you live? Migrate down south a bit friend! haha. Sorry for the depressing weather. It will get better soon enough!
ReplyDeleteOh, I am kind of chuckling because this would be par for the course in my neck of the woods, but our last snowstorm was about 2 weeks ago and I really HOPING I don't see anymore of the white stuff. :) I have said this before, I am a winter person and I love snow, but come on it is APRIL, there is a reason it is called April showers as in Rain showers, not snow showers. So, sorry my friend you are having to deal with this, hopefully it is shortlived and melts quickly and you are back to the nice weather.
ReplyDeleteDo you have any funy plans for the weekend?
oh my goodness...we don't even see this in January let alone April! I'm wearing flip flops and hot in my jeans today...crazy!
