Snow!

The snow was beautiful this morning, clinging to every bush and branch. I shoveled the front, the back, the sides, and the community parking lot three times. My dog had a ball. I sweated through my undershirt and long-johns. Now my sweater hat scarf and mittens are drying in the boiler room and the laundry is ready for me to hang up on the basement clothesline. I feel cozy. I am baking a pot of wheat berries and brown rice and sipping my black coffee. Happy Saturday!
Snow is festive and communal. Neighbors come out and chat. We shovel each other out and gossip a little. If I had a plow I'd use it to help my neighbors who can't shovel. The City does a great job plowing all of the streets. We are lucky!
