Make it stop!
Yesterday, after doing a bit of grocery shopping, I parked in my usual spot behind my building. There was still snow in the alley, but it had pretty much been packed down by garbage trucks, cars, etc. (No thanks due to the City of Chicago, which has announced that it will not be plowing alleys. Now if Daley were running for re-election, it would surely be a different story!) I woke up this morning, looked out the window, and saw that it was snowing again!
It turned out not to be too bad. Just a couple of inches of new stuff, the powdery kind, and it's stopped already. I went out and brushed off my car, and shoveled out some of the new & old from behind and between the cars to make it easier to get out in the morning. Then, as long as I was out there, I brushed the snow off the other condo owners' cars.
Then I came in and had oatmeal for breakfast.
ETA: I just noticed that there is a link on the NYT website to "Personalize Your Weather". Unfortunately, it won't let me order "warm & sunny"!
