cold & soggy.

last weekend, we had a bunch of this:

and this:

and this:

it's not supposed to snow like that here. no sir. not in the mid-atlantic. not when i live ten minutes from the atlantic ocean. i think we got about 10" total...some parts of our yard had more due to the drifting snow.

schools were out until wednesday. wednesday, y'all. i didn't go to work for most of this week because of the weather & my kiddos being out of school. oh, who am i kidding, i only missed one day {duh, i only work three days a week}. but, still. i was seriously on the verge of a nervous breakdown {well, i could blame more than snow & restless kids for that}.

this morning, we still had a nice patch of snow in our yard. there are still piles of {icky, dirty} snow around town.

well, maybe not anymore because i'm sure it's all gone now.

washed away.

while the rest of the state and the upper portions of the mid-atlantic are being hit by snowmageddon, we are being pelted with rain. rain that is pouring out of the sky in sheets. sideways. seriously, isn't this like the 340934067982734th nor'easter so far this winter?
i was out in our laundry room and the rain was coming in the cat door. the. cat. door.

ridiculous.

i don't know about you, but i am so ready for some summer weather. bring on the heat & humidity. i'm over this roller coaster weather. crazy snowy forecasts. 20 to 30 degree temperature changes. frigid air. dry skin. red noses.

i want sunshine. sweaty skin. bare feet. tank tops. summer nights. oh, i'll even take 'skeeter bites over this crummy weather. well, maybe i'll draw the line at 'skeeter bites.

silly groundhog. thanks for nothing.
