December Snow Day
Winter's Back
This year, winter is practicing hard. I’m not sure whether quite successfully, because even though this was the third time snowing this December, it’s just never really a lot, and doesn’t stick around for long, but we can’t blame winter for not trying. Really. So, after it started snowing again yesterday afternoon (note the timing: it always happens when I have to be at work), I decided to go out early this morning to get a couple of snapshots before all the students decent on it yet once more. And in the end, I actually liked what I saw!

Dreaming of a White Winter
Winter seems to be generous this year. After the first snowy trial run a couple of weeks ago, yesterday, winter bestowed upon us a chilly, wintery layer of snow dust. It wasn’t much, but it was enough to turn things into an “almost” perfect winter wonderland. Unfortunately, I had to work by the time the snow actually started to matter. And by the time I got off work, it was dark already. Still, with my students, I was able to make the most of it, by running outside as soon as the bell would ring, for some pictures. And if nothing else, this short little snow interlude gives wings to my hopes for a more snowy winter this year. We’ll see what is to come …
Let It Snow Let It Snow Let It Snow
Guess what very exciting thing happened today! Yes, of course, you’re right (because the title and photo gave it away, duh!): it snowed. Or at least it tried to snow. A little trial run of snow, I’d say. Probably because winter wanted to see whether it’s still in the business of being able to produce big white flakes of fluff! And in fact, winter hasn’t forgotten a thing! Except, maybe, how to make the snow actually stick to the ground. But again, this year, winter’s still pretty young, so there’s still plenty of time to get things right! At least I hope it will, because I do love me some big white fluffy stuff to cover everything and turn the world into a beautiful winter wonderland. Maybe, if I’d be more deliberate about reminding winter of its duties … So, off to sing … Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow …
And Now Winter May Come …
The other day I told you I had brought my down coat to the cleaner, and today, I picked it up again. Not quite as clean as I had expected it to be, but it certainly will keep me warm. And now that I have finished washing all my other warm winter stuff, I’m ready to face whatever cold may come. Of course, I hope that this winter that cold may also bring lots of snow, since we hadn’t had a really snowy winter in a long time. But only time can tell what will happen. Until then I’m content with knowing that this winter at least I’ll be warm and cozy!
Preparing for Winter
Winter is coming. I can tell by how cold it’s been getting lately. So, it’s about time for me to get everything ready for the coldest season of the year. Today, that meant taking my down coat to the dry cleaner. Maybe, where you are from, down coats are not very common for the average person. But here, I assure, they come in very handy once the cold strikes. That day hasn’t quite come yet, but it will certainly come soon. And when it comes, I’ll be prepared …
