Stormy weather

Now that I live here in the great Northwest, I am learning about the new weather that I get to live in. I have always loved to experience the different seasons. I love the changing colors of fall, and I really don't mind the rain and cold of winter. But, I have to say that I love a good storm, when I can stay in and watch it rage around me. I am not so happy about it when I have to drive to work in it. But I must say it does afford some amazing scenes to unfold. This morning was a full moon that was setting over the ocean when I left for work at 6:30 (yes, AM) It cast a glow to the water. It's too bad that I was really busy trying to keep my car from sliding on the icy roads. They were frosted over from the rain. I slipped and slid everywhere!!! Ah the joys of it all. Then after I got to work, and unwrapped myself from my coat and scarf and gloves, I then got to hear that they are predicting snow tomorrow here at the coast. SNOW!!!!! AT THE COAST! What happened to the west coast being warm I ask you? Oh yea, I am in the Northwest(Sigh!) I am not missing the sun, I am not missing the heat or the dust or the oak trees, but I am not ready for snow. Uh-uh! No sireee, no way jose, that is not what I wanted at all. The up side is that I am off the next two days. So, although I am going to be going out in it if it does, it will be on my terms, meaning Cal will be driving, not me. And I will be bundled up just like the transplanted California girl that I am, from head to toe, cuz I don't like the snow!!!
Although it would be pretty to see in on the beach...............Ok, as long as it goes away by Wednesday morning when I have to go to work I guess it will be ok, but I will not stand for it any longer than that, do you hear me Mother Nature??? I am just voicing my very vocal opinion!
Now, if all of you don't mind, I am going to go see if Overstock.com has an electric blanket on sale. I need one for my bed if we are going to be having the white stuff around here. The dogs can only keep me warm for so long then I need a little help. Everyone have a great Thanksgiving!!!!!!
