Sher the Love: What the !@#%^?!!!

What the !@#%^?!!!

I woke up yesterday morning to this:

Yes. Snow. In October. I'm NOT happy. What happened to fall? We went straight from Winter, to Summer and back to Winter again. Half the reason I like living in Utah is because it has 4 distinct seasons. (the other half is that I grew up here, and never had any reason to leave).

What happened to those 4 seasons? For the past year, we just go from one extreme to the other.

I'm not prepared, mentally, for winter yet. I need some more 50-60 degree weather. Give me just one more month. Come on!!!!

Maybe I'll move to St. George.....

Wonder Woman said...: I heard that this weekend is supposed to be pretty mild. 70s, even. That'd be nice! You're exactly right, though - it was pretty chilly even in May, and there was snow in the mountains in JUNE! Then we were in the 100s a week later! Does El Nino still exist or do we blame it on global warming now?!; October 14, 2008 at 9:31 AM

My kids say the darndest things, so here are a few examples:

Mar 2010; Mom: "Who wants to come with me to Sam's Club?"
