It's been the wettest and coldest Spring in the Pacific Northwest since ever. Seriously, it is supposed to freaking SNOW tonight. I keep cautiously casting my eyes toward the thermometer.
It's difficult to complain when childhood friend L told me that one of the tornadoes touched down 10 miles from her home. 10 miles. Eff that. I know CK has had total crap weather where she lives and Daydream Believer had snow yesterday. It seems everywhere people are having a difficult time with the weather.
This is the first time where I've seriously considered getting tickets for somewhere warm & sunny. Usually I am stubbornly positive about the rain. This is the season where Emerald City earned it's name. Everything is beautiful right now. The green is returning, the tulips and daffodils are growing. I actually bought real flowers the other day. (if the snow kills them I am going to be pissed)
But this weather is beginning to take it out of me. It's nearly May and snow is in the forecast.
Kevin and I made a deal the other night while watching the news that we weren't complaining about the weather anymore after watching the South get pummeled by tornadoes and rain.
I hope this finds you warm, dry, and with a roof over your heads.
i was worried about some blog friends in alabama too. we had storms here in nc and tornadoes, but fortunately nothing in our immediate area. rain/thunderstorms i can so handle, and actually love, but tornadoes freak me the hell out. i'm proud of you for getting LIVE flowers! whoot whoot!
