wishing for spring...

I have had my fill of winter already.

We got another snow storm last night, one week after the last one.. that broke and bent all of the trees over. Well we are outside shaking the trees again, they are on the ground again! The leaves came off the bigger trees, but are not coming off these fruit trees. The snow is so heavy it just knocks everything over.

I feel like we are just wasting our time trying to get these back up, but them it is heart breaking to hear them snapping off and bent in half.

We have a total of 21 inches of snow and that is in 2 storms. We have another storm coming in on Sat. The sad part is,,, winter hasn't even started yet.

I hear you!!!! Even though in this area the amount of snow is just a hint of what you get in Colorado. I turned the heat on a couple days ago and now have it off again. Am determined not to put the heat on until it is winter. lol

Ok, I promise not to complain about the amount of snow we get this year.

I know what you mean, this is the second Wednesday in a row with snow, and I've stayed home both times. My DH says we are due for a hard winter, we've been fairly spoiled the last few years.

I hope it's not going to be like a few years ago when we had storms eight weeks in a row.
It's crazy tho, looking out the window, the roads are clear already.

Yep, I'm complaining already.

Just for fun I am going to keep track of how much we get. Here you can get 2 feet in one town, and nothing 2 miles up the road. Guess I have too much time on my hands?!

I keep track of it myself.
