Let it snow!...

Ok I know that winter means COLD weather and a high chance of snow for about everyone outside the state of Florida. Yes we had snow flurries when I was in the 1st grade but that does not count. It melted before it touched my tongue! I have to tell you that this Floridian did not really see snow until she was 16 and even then she was very unprepared for it! My wardrobe consisted of t-shirts & shorts only to have a freak snowstorm hit our rustic cabin in the NC mountains. We had about 6 inches of snow that Spring Break. Needless to say I got majorly sick after that adventure! But at least I can say I saw snow! Now fast forward quite a few years to the winter of 2010. We've had some CRAZY CRAZY weather! For the amount of clothes we have layered upon ourselves we need something for our trouble! I think we deserve some snow! Approximately 3 hours North of us got some so why not share the wealth? I mean since Florida is NOT suppose to be so cold why not make it memorable one?! And to think they say there is global warming, ha! Something is going on but I doubt it's that! I started getting my hopes up today when it started raining. All you need is COLD weather & a little precipitation. We have the components so bring it on! Nothing like rain & cold weather to ruin a perfectly good Saturday! UGH! But if it snowed now that would turn even a bad day good! Now all of your northerners who get the snow I am sorry to complain. I just want the tribe to see what you all take for granted. If my wish comes true I promise not to complain again! (= Give me something to talk about! Give us some snow! We have the precipitation & the temperature is cold enough so why not let us get some benefit out of it!? The tribe needs some action down here & a good snow day would do just the trick! SO please Mother Nature please either give us our warm weather back or just...

Let it snow!...

Fun to hear your snow story, but snow/cold does not make you sick anywhere but in the movies. Bacteria and viruses make you sick. If anything we are healthier in the North because the cold kills those little buggers that make you sick. We complain a lot and often up here, but we live a long time! We are dancing about the 22 degrees today...a heat wave. By the way, we complain when we hit 90 and humidity, too!
Love your blog!!

I failed to mention that when I first saw snow it was in a cabin with a wood burning stove & showers outside by the water off the mountain. So I am sure that did not help keep this girl well! The mountain water was FREEZING to say the least & the outside temp's were not any better! Viruses or not I was SO sick that Spring Break! (=
