There is a wintry wonderland outside, and I believe it fell today specifically to celebrate Mummy and Yaso's shared birthday. Snow has been falling steadily for about six hours, and it's actually settled this time - there is at least two inches of snow all over our neighbourhood. It's on the grass, bushes and trees, and everything looks so lovely.
Bruce and I both work from home on Fridays, and happily the snow waited until today to get here. That meant we didn't have to contend with the crazy people on the roads who get nervous and think any snow on the road is dangerous, even when temperatures are above freezing and there is thus no ice on the road yet. Tomorrow, however, will probably be another story. Temperatures are now at about freezing point, or slightly below, which means roads will most likely be icy in the morning. It should melt by the time the sun has been up for a few hours, though, since temperatures are expected to be above freezing. And at least we're not in Washington, D.C., where they've had record snowfall and are only now beginning to dig out of the mess. I don't think I ever want to live that far up north.
Happy birthday to the two February 12 gals - we'll have fun in the snow on your behalf!
