With a Vengeance

It was supposed to look like this. Summer feeling! I was supposed to be sitting outside in my bikini, reading books on my new ereader, while sipping a glass of cold Sangria, squinting against the bright sun now and then to see my little boy in his inflatable pool, splashing about. In stead we got this. Rain, rain and then some more rain. Oh, and a wind blowing so hard…

Parents sit there and bask in the sun, out of the wind, chilling out while those…

Here’s what I woke up to this morning: a pristine white landscape. My lilac tree bowing under the weight of the snow. And there’s a lot of fresh, crisp, snow! I’m rooting for a white Christmas, but with our luck it’ll have turned into sleet and mud by then. Snow so dense I could barely open my son’s bedroom window to take a photo. See how small the houses are…
