Attention: Snow Birds

DON'T COME HOME!!!!  I repeat....DON'T COME HOME!!!!!

Not yet, anyway.  We'll be having another 10-15 cm. of snow in the next 24 hours and if you've been pampered all winter with wussy-type temperatures, you'll freeze your butts off if you attempt to get back into the real winter world.  So stay put....(that's for Wendy...heehee)

After our annual ordeal on Monday of reserving our camping spot for the summer months, it makes me wonder if it was all worth it.  I mean, what the heck kind of summer will we have at this rate.  The snow probably won't even be melted around the ice cream shop by June!  And the lake....another matter altogether.  I've never gone swimming with ice chunks but hey, there's always a first time for everything.

So with weather not looking too promising in the next while, I'm tempted to curl up in a ball and wait until it's all over...which may mean waiting a good long time.  After all, climate change is happening right before our eyes!!!  Are we too stupid to recognize it all or are we hiding our heads in the snow banks (as opposed to sand, since we won't be having much sand to hide our heads in if this snow doesn't melt by July!!!)

On a lighter note, I'm still coughing and Ken is waiting for physio on his arthritic hip.  Between the two of us, we're keeping the health care system going.  I think though that my lungs are simply waiting for some warm weather to breathe in.  Blaming the weather for everything seems pretty fair to me.  It can't answer back and the way it's been behaving, it deserves it!

If we are true Saskatchewanians though, we will still be looking forward to what is supposed to be summer months and the time we will spend in our beautiful north country.  June 15 to August 31 will find us at Waskesiu, enjoying whatever will be there...snow, sleet, hail, hurricane, tornado or anything else that can be thrown our way.  Bring it on!!!

But tonight I'm so tired from all the action at Kid's Klub today, that I may just sleep through the snow storm that is forecast for tonight and tomorrow.  We shall see. The Weather Network has been known to be wrong once or twice...

So, sleep well, dear ones.  Tomorrow is another day...even if it is snowy.
