Yesterday and all during the night, this thief sneakily slipped in our area quietly stealing. We were all shocked at the snow when we stepped out of church at 2:00pm. There was a white-out trying to drive home still...this is spring it will all melt right? What was stolen wasn't apparent until morning. All night long the snow kept falling. The roads out here are not passable without 4 wheel drive. Below is a picture taken of our drive this morning, and this is after Mark cleared it last night:
The tree in our south yard that looks as if it is bending under the weight of this heavy burden:
We could decorate this evergreen with Christmas lights if it was near that time of the winter:
But this is not winter it is spring, it is just 6 days until Easter and 1 day after Psalm Sunday. Below is a picture of mom's bird feeder, taken by Jessica:
The thief has stolen precious time away from my grand children, stolen the seed for the birds, the productivity at work as snow removal is now taking precedent over installing equipment and most of all it has stolen the few bright spots of green that were just starting to arrive.
Mom had a pretty decent night, awaking just after midnight for pain medication and again at 5:30am. Rachel took my place at 7:30am so I could rush home, take care of poor stalled Ella (who is still heavy in foal) the dogs and be all ready to greet Braelyn and Taegan at 8:00am who are now not coming because of the
snow. Mark drove my car in as that is the only car that still has it's snow tires on so I'm stuck here for the day with no grand children. This could be a good time to work on re-installing the contacts on my phone as I accidentally deleted every single one while trying to learn how to use this very difficult piece of equipment!
...and I was starting to forget and think 39 was cold. (sorry)
