Friday 55-Snow More!/Da Count-Snow Less!

FRIDAY 55


The thermometer hit 70 degrees.
I threw open the windows.
I rejoiced to hear the spring peepers.
I went without a coat.
The equinox arrived...

And left quickly.

The mercury plummeted.
I cranked the heat back up.
I'm pretty sure the frogs froze to death.
I reached for my scarf and mittens.

It's snowing...
AGAIN!





DA COUNT

I really was overjoyed when Spring began to hit at it's arrival but it was a mere tease 2 weeks ago.  Winter reared its ugly head again.  March came in like a lion and was determined to go roaring out the same way.  As I write this post it's snowing with predictions of 5-10 inches.  I am less than thrilled.  Yes, this all sounds more like a lament than a count.  I'm going to count that it's April...in the northern hemisphere.  That has to mean something, right?  Spring has to return soon, doesn't it?  It's April...it's going to be warm soon...
