Jan 18

I made it yesterday, but my mum came out to visit for lunch (great lunch Mom!) and then I crumped at the end of the day instead of getting a chance to post it.
So here is Jan 18th, more wishful thinking than predition or observation. We’ve had a LOT of rain so far this winter, and not much snow. When I think rationally about water buckets NOT freezing in the barn, and the footing staying reasonable, and only mud and water tracked into the house instead of the salt/sand/snow trifecta, it seems like a pretty good deal. But I miss sledding, or more realistically, sending the kids OUT for sledding, and I miss the white light you get in winter, that almost makes up for how short the days are. It could be nice to have one really rip-snorting snow storm, up to the waist, snowed in for two days, etc. and then let it all melt and start the crocuses.
So much for requesting weather, eh?
