I feel your pain Ginya... I am next door in Wisconsin. We haven't had too much snow this winter but it has certainly been cold. Right now we have a crispy covering of about three inches with deeper drifts here and there... but it is the hard, icy kind of snow that is no fun. March is the worst month... it feels like it should be spring but we for sure have another month left!
Is it my imagination, or has this been the longest effing winter IN MY LIFE!?!?! I'M SICK OF IT!!! I feel like having a MAJOR tantrum. (hmmm, I think maybe I AM!)
Me too, Ellis! I think it's the new Ice Age and I missed the announcement as Madcat says. The damn snow on the way to the barn is up to my crotch! Mind you I have short legs but still!
Grrrrrr and Brrrrrrr!
Oh thou, who speaketh Klingon...what does Qapla' mean? I ask because on one of our Star Trek ornaments, Warf says, "Have an honorable Christmas..." and then what sounds like, "Qapla"...Inquiring minds want to know...
...must be rough to have so much time on my hands, that I can ask these silly questions...hmmm...this could be why I'm not getting too much done today
