When I wrote about the Snowpocalypse of 2011, I didn’t actually expect it to snow.
Then the Weather Channel issued a Winter Weather Warning Friday night. Still wasn’t expecting anything. We’re not completely stupid though since we didn’t take any chances and stocked up on bread and milk and stuff.

Sunday came and we did our thing and come 1900, the Weather Channel was saying it should be snowing. Not a flake to be seen.

Tuesday–Tucker didn’t work then either–we ventured out again though we were sure we’d be right back in. About an hour later, we all came in with very red noses and slightly numb toes.
When the snow first fell, everyone was acting like there was a huge party going on. Now the snow’s melting and it’s all rather depressing.
Here’s to hoping for more snow in the near future.
