We Have Snow

As the photo shows, we got a lot of snow yesterday. When I went to bed the totals were close to seven inches and the weather man said it would probably be more by morning. In the photo you can also see a nice blue sky and a blazing sun, and maintenance taking care of the sidewalk immediately in front of the building. With the fact that all the snow needs to be taken care of, the complex will have the parking lot plowed today and I will need to leave the warm confines of my apartment, and find a place to hang out for three hours, from 12:30-3. I was thinking about going to a movie, as I did several times last year when it snowed, or the library, another option. My problem is my cold. I don't want to spread it to other people, so the theater is out. I hate the idea of going to the library, but it is the only other option, and hopefully the one I will go to doesn't have a lot of patrons at that time of day. What I will do is take my new Chromebook with me so I can still interact here. I won't be able to work on a book but I can be here. I hope. The library should be a hotspot. When I checked the temperature earlier we had a wind chill of -4. I'm happy that right now the temp is 9 F with no wind chill. Still very cold, but the lack of wind is a good thing. That is what is happening in my neighborhood. What is happening in yours? Thanks for reading. Photo - mine.

I'm sorry you caught my cold. I guess that means I need to not cough while working on the computer. 50's is way to warm for my part of the country. I know where you live it's probably perfect.

There will be enough at the library to keep you occupied.

I was right here with you all, but I did check out (looked at) some interesting books in the children's section.

@just4him this year being alone I would rather not have lots of snow otherwise I could not get out of my house. Otherwise I do enjoy snow when it has first fallen especially on Christmas.

@RasmaSandra You don't have anyone who could shovel it for you? It is nice to have for Christmas.

It would make me sad to see the snow melt. Do you like snow? Or were you happy to see it melt away?

@just4him Northern Florida has had snow in the past and freezing temperatures. That's why we are down south. Thanks! Will do! lol

@DianneN I think they had some recently, or maybe just cold weather.

I'm glad it is. It would be terrible if it would snow in Florida. Enjoy the sun and fun and say hi to Orville for me.

Yes, but with the amount of coughing I do, no one would appreciate being interrupted by my coughing spasm. I went to the library. There weren't a lot of people, and I did stay as far from them as I could, though one family came into the children's section where I had ensconced myself.

@Courtlynn I wish it wasn't. When I think I'm getting over it, I'll have another huge coughing spasm.

Winter has definitely arrived. We are having quite a bit of rain - and some fog.

Yes, it has and I'm loving every snowflake minute of it. I would hate rain this time of year. Fog makes it worse.

We had a little but it didn't stick around. That has happened several times. Hope it snows for Christmas but not much more than that down here in the valley.

@just4him ......I live in a valley. We usually don't get much here but do get more in the mountains.

What a shame you have to quit your apartment for a few hours in such a cold day. Take care to stay warm.

I'm back and have the space heater on in my room to get warmed up. The library was nice, but it was also chilly.

Pretty but oh so cold. Today its still sweet roads but tomorrow it probably will snow-rain. And I am supposed to take hubby to the doc in a town just north of us. I am trying not to think about that too much. I hope you find a warm spot to park and play on the computer.

It's funny that I can look at a picture and say, Ah, that looks Midwestern. Reminds me of when I lived in Iowa. 9 F sounds "hecka" cold to me right now!

It is cold, but without a wind it was actually very nice that day.

I remember last year when you had to get your car out of the parking lot from time to time. Hope you find somewhere warm. The library sounds a good option.

It was the perfect option. I didn't spend any money and I was able to interact here while I was there.

It's in the 60's here for today. The sun is shining and I am loving it. I think with a cold and all that snow I might think about hunkering down and stay cozy in my living room and write.

I love the library, but since I have my kindle, I hardly ever go. That is incredibly cold, so please stay warm.

Doing my best to stay warm. I don't have a Kindle, but I rarely go to the library. Usually only once a month for the Writer's Guild meetings.

I tried to hide in a corner of the library away from most of the people, though there weren't a lot there, which I was hoping for.
