Randon Thoughts on Snow

by Jack Handy...just kidding.

As the East Coast is getting pummeled (like Payton Manning in the last play of the Superbowl) with snow, I look outside and am extremely grateful that I can see the grass in our yard.  It's dead, ugly brown grass, but grass none the less.

Ever since I packed up my life and moved to Colorado, my view on snow has drastically changed, and not b/c of the amount we get.  The opposite is true.  It has changed b/c of TheHusband's crazy boss man making him go to work days in advance of potential snow.  It has made me come to dread snow.  This makes me sad as I've always loved it, especially the really big storms where you HAVE to stay home and play cards with your family.  Wandering the house by yourself (oops!  and barkley too!) is just no fun.  (Nor is shoveling the corner lot of property we live on, but that's neither here nor there.)

Unfortunately,we usually get a big April storm here, so the end is not in sight.  I will tell you what is though.  REJOICE!  TheHusband's crazy boss is leaving in soon!  Soon I tell you!  TheHusband's life, and by association, my life will be infinitely better.  I am positive more crazy bosses are in our future, but for now, let's just bask in the warm glow, of maybe, just maybe, enjoying the snow.
