Do You Know What Today Is?

Today

On Day Six

Anita Marie Asks…

Do you know what today is?

Before I tell you let me tell you about my day.

Today it snowed.

I baked.

I played with my cats and wondered if

I was stranded in my car on the side of the road in this snow storm

would I care about what I wanted for Christmas?

If the power went out like it did last year, and it went back on across the street two days before the power was restored on my side of the street and I had to sit in my dark house and watch the Christmas Lights on my neighbors house go on in the evening and cast little rays of  happy  lights on their  plastic Christmas yard ornaments would getting a Monkey Fish seem like something I would be thinking about?

That I should be thinking about?

You bet I would-and I DID- because I think it’s those wild dreams that give us the strength to deal with the world when things get absolutely unbearable.

I’ve made it my mission in life to see those dreams of mine come true…

and sometimes they do

and when they do it is always so worth the effort it took to keep them alive.

Now here’s the answer to the question.

Today

::It’s Christmas In Heaven That’s What Today Is:::

That’s Right, It’s Snowing

Here in Washington State we just don’t have regular old snow-  HELL NO

We have Thundersnow

Trap us on the Freeway here in Washington?

Oh.

I think not.

What you don’t see here is that a few minutes after this picture was taken cars started to turn around and drive the wrong way down the Shoulder ( behind this pedestrian ) so that they could get off of the freeway.

fyi

you can click the pictures to get to the orginal news stories.

And if you think that here in Snohomish County we just build snowmen or ride sleds down one of our many hills or drive to the Malls and spend all day there eating Salted Pretzels and drinking Coffee with fancy French and Italian names because school was cancelled and we couldn’t get to work so we stayed home

HA HA ON YOU!

We do stuff like this:::
