It’s snowing in Portland…
I know it looks like just a dusting, but that’s because it really is. It’s also a big deal for the area and drivers get petrified of it. Which makes them idiots because they still drive in it.
I, however, don’t have a vehicle and so have no option of going anywhere. What’s worse is that I really don’t have suitable shoes for wandering out and about in it. And I so do love a good wander.
All joking about the weather aside, it is supposed to be in the teens/twenties for a good portion of the week, so the snow we get will be sticking around for a bit. That should make commuting tomorrow fun.
I’m still without an Internet provider, so I’m writing all this from my phone, lovely thing. I had plans to do some errands, but that’s unlikely in today’s weather. And as I write this ambulance are screaming past. Silky people. Anyway, I’ll likely be sitting about knitting last minute gifts, trying desperately to get them out before the big day.
So until next time, be well!

It just started snowing here too. But it’s the sloshy variety. Ew.
Just brought our “tree” upstairs last night. I’ll make it our center piece for dinner tonight:)
Adios don Don!

It’s supposed to be all around nasty today. I just want to stay home, sleep in, and finish my parents’ gifts before it’s too late to mail them!
I have a real tree, yeah!

That’s somehow fitting…

Silky people? Are all the people really soft in Portland?
I miss snow being an oddity.

It’s all the rain we get. It makes us rather slick.
I noticed that typo the other day, but obviously did little to correct it. As I said, I was typing on my phone, and it’s usually pretty good about catching my mistakes. This time, not so much.
As much as I complain about the snow, I do like one good snowstorm a year. Unfortunately, the snow here, if at all, is usually more of a mess than anything. This doesn’t really count as a good snowing.
