But, the weather goddesses were not kind to us; for we woke up Monday morning (only about 6 hours later) and it was snowing. Not just snowing, but blizzard snowing. Cold temps, blustery winds, and somewhere around 10 inches of new snow. It snowed all damn day. Seriously, all day. The driving sucked (and of course, this was the longest day of my work week and when I have to drive all over town to get to both jobs....grrr.) the weather sucked, and my attitude sucked.

So, I decided to do something. I couldn't fix the weather, I couldn't fix the roads, but I could fix my attitude. Therefore, I went outdoors between jobs and built a snowman.

Actually, snowgirl, and isn't she cute. Yes, she's small. I was trying to lighten my mood, but I am not that in love with playing in the snow...get over it. I brought Josie the wonderdog outside to play with me and it was going pretty well. Except that once I had the base finished on snowgirl, I turned away to start the second section and Josie destroyed it! Bully. Big bully. I yelled at her to leave my snowman alone. But then, it made me laugh. Just like kids on a playground, who knew she was such a troublemaker? Okay, we all did, but my mood was considerably lighter.

Then, after my long day, I headed home, the roads were better (at least the interstate was better) and I was feeling pretty good. Then I got stuck in the damn driveway. Sigh. Sometimes, the day is just gonna suck-no matter what you do.

Now, today, it is 42 degrees and sunny, all of that nasty snow is melting. What on earth was the point of that blizzard? Just to piss off all of us who believed that spring was here?  The funny thing is, we still believe. I am looking outside right now and thinking this is it, winter's over. And who knows, it could snow again tomorrow. Oh well, if it does, maybe I will just get snowgirl a boyfriend.
