It is the middle of June, and I just had to put our heat on.

Interesting. It was 28 degrees here May 21st in the year I was born. Today? 84.

Global Climate crisis or typical Chicago Spring? I'm too hot to care right now.
I'll just be happy I'm finally thawed out from that nasty Winter!

Also, my daughter calls Buddha "Buddy". I loves it.

Three days ago I was in a short sleeve shirt, having lunch outside and walking around the zoo. and right NOW??
There's like three freaking inches of fat, wet snow sitting out there, and it's still coming down!

There's always that last lingering "Eff You!" from winter. I hope this is the last of it. I need a thaw, and bad.

Still, it *is*

AND! It's chasing our car because blizzards like boys!

there is so much snow. Guess how much. 86 degrees!!"

We just got back inside from an attempt to get Eric to work. It's that fine, powdery, wet, slippery snow dumping on us right now, and by the look of it, it's been at it a few hours now ( Read more... )

All attempts to will the snow away have failed. I thought I could psyche it out. Call its bluff. But it came. It came just the same. It came without packages, boxes or bags ( Read more... )

Oh 64 fabulous degrees of warmth out there ( Read more... )

There's falling-in-love weather out there today. Just gorgeous.
