They Who Shall Not Be Named (Twisnibbins) VI (Page 21)

Good luck Kendra!  (so that means I've got a week to work on the pic)...

Good morning to all of you early risers... Must be something in the water for us Nibbinses.
I was awake at 4:15, walked the dog, did my physical therapy stuff, on my third cup of coffee, time to hit the shower.

Happy Friday, all of you Nibbins!! 

Morning Sharon!  My timing is so bad.  I'm heading out the door to go run for an hour...

Have a great day...

You do the same, Sal...

I am looking forward to being dumped on with snow this weekend!

Nanny-nanny-boo-boo! You're going to have snow! (I actually like snow...a little. It needs to snow once, so I know it is winter, and then go away, so that people don't drive like idiots...of course last year, our only snow came in April. ) Kristen

Heck, even in MN, the first snow flushes out the idiots!

Tomorrow is our Reindeer Run 5k... and the snow should be arriving just in time to make it a fun race.  I actually love snow (can't wait to get out the XC skis)... I'm just glad that it has held off until 12/1. 

Good morning back at you, Pam.

After growing up in Illinois and Wisconsin, I then spent eight years in Indiana and five in Georgia.  The first winter back in the north was both painful (brrrr) and delightful.  I finally understood why the Eskimos have so many different words for "snow".

I must admit that living in GA really spoiled me... only scraped my car windows once/year, and taunted friends and family who lived in the great white north. 

One of my colleagues - a sweet Georgia boy - thought that the snowblower of another colleague was used for removing leaves... LOL! 

Okay, I'll give you that one about getting the mail... I HATE to bundle up to take the dog out for a walk if she needs an anomalous "midnight walk". 

But, I'm kind of weird... I view shoveling / using the snowblower as a grown up's excuse for going out to play in the snow... I LOVE it!

(okay, weird... I even loved it as a kid)

(must be frozen brain syndrome)

I cannot STAND snow. We hates it. We hates it forever.

... good thing you are in CA... of course, the snow in the Sierra Nevadas is most beautiful... especially up near Three Rivers.

Snow on mountains = pretty.

Snow in everyday life = sucks

Growing up in Des Moines, we never really had enough snow to learn to enjoy winter. We'd usually get a dirty, icy blanket of 6" that would half melt, then it would cloud up, the wind would blow out of the NW for weeks and it would drop below zero. That's not winter, that's punishment.

See, the first seven years of my life were in the outskirts of the Moline, IL area... great snow: snow forts, sledding,  "snow dogs/horses/men", ice-skating, etc... snow=fun.  But, you are right, metro-area snow, after many cars and trucks have driven on it = yucky.

(I tend to be a glass-is-half-full kind of person... overlooking the gross mushy snow)
