Enter Wind, Stage North


The snow actually coming down from the sky has slowed, but not stopped. Now the wind is howling, which means drifting, and a lot of it.


The front steps are under there somewhere.

School was delayed for two hours this morning, though I'm not sure that's enough time to dig out from this. Especially because the wind isn't supposed to stop for days.

Thankfully, everyone slept in this morning. Well, everyone except Poppy. Let's not be silly. She was awake at 5 a.m. 

We had lots of bonding time before the next child emerged at 7 a.m. That was Charlie, who informed me he had caught Cubby's cold.


He is thoughtfully keeping his distance from the baby, but it's only a matter of time before I'm suctioning her nose out again.

His insane behavior this morning, however, tells me he's not at death's door, so both he and Cubby are at school. A. very nicely shoveled a path through the drifts so they could get to the road to catch the bus. 

So now it's just me and the tiny crew. And the drifting snow.

Snow isn't bad, sometime during the future it has to quit, right?
Love the picture.

OH WOE Kristin - I am not going to complain anymore about our weather! Snow seems so fun and romantic til its March - you must be fed up!I hope Cubby is a bit better too and you didn't have to do too much nose suctioning. Wishing you all the best1 We are supposed to get snow too at the week-end... What's going on?! Is it usually like this for you in March?

Oh yes, this is quite common for March here. Last year we had our last snow in May.
