Snow No!

Hey. It snowed. 

It hardly ever snows in Nashville. We get maybe one "good" snow a year and by good I mean like 2 inches. This was about 6 - 8 inches. I know to my friends in the north even that seems tiny, but to us it's enough for our government to declare a state of emergency. And that is what they did. No I am not joking. 

It's all gone now, but for about 3 days the situation seemed pretty dire. No bread or milk anywhere to be seen. People walking around in coats, and hats. Snow people as far as the eye could see...It was terrifying. 

This was the 3rd day I believe and we finally ventured out to take some photos and play at the greenway. 

I think I'm good now as far as Winter is concerned. I'm done. Bring on Spring! I don't think I could stand the sight of another snow person...*shiver*

Laid Off and Laid Up

Hi friends! Sorry for my absence lately! I never meant to stay away for so long! I had planned on blogging more, but life always seems to get in the way. For instance, I was laid off last Monday! Yay for me! To add insult to injury I got a stomach bug on Saturday. 

I fully expect to get back on my feet quickly. I'm not one to sit around and do nothing, and not working is making me a little crazy, although looking for a job is a full time job! 

Over the holidays I nabbed this sweater at H&M in the men's section for $5! That's the kind of deal a jobless person looks for! Don't ever be afraid to shop in the men's section ladies! Sometimes you find some very useful items, and I don't just mean hats, and scarves, and socks, and beard combs! 

I hope everyone is having a great 2016 so far! I'll keep you posted on my job hunt. Send me your good juju, and prayers, and love, and just for good measure; beard combs.

Cold Snap

People. It is colder than a polar bear on the Edmund Fitzgerald. It is more frigid than Rose's right foot as it hung carelessly in the water from her door of lies as she let Jack sink off into the bitter coldness of the icy water knowing all the while that that door would have saved them both! It is icier than Vanilla Ice's freezer! 

Did I give you enough of an idea of how cold it has been with my terrible puns and historical (movieorical) inaccuracy, or are you thirsty for more?

We were supposed to get a snow storm of sorts (anything above an inch of snow with higher than 5mph winds in Tennessee is certifiably a snow storm) but it ended up being ice instead. Ice is worse. Ice is like the apocalypse. Nobody moves for at least 24 hours and if they do, they are labeled insane, and funerals are planned in advance. Ok, maybe it's not that bad, but it's pretty close. Since I came back from Rochester I have been told by every single person here I "brought the snow with me". No I didn't! I left it right where I found it! It's not my fault that snow is all weird and needy. Go away snow! I didn't ask for you! I am in a long term relationship with warm, and you are not wanted!

All that being said, it is beautiful. Even Daisy had a good time. Of course this is when I was holding her. D had to carry her inside twice because her feet just literally stop working. Moose on the other hand does ok. He just runs as fast as he can back to the door before too much cold wetness gets between his toes. 

I hope your week is warmer than mine. Please do not watch Titanic and look for Rose's right foot in the water. I have no idea if that's true or not. I hope it is though. I hope it froze right off on the dirty door hogger.
