And yes I do agree with you, saying we really don't get so very much snow each year, that we should be able to cope with this fleeting, annual snow fall, that is our lot, generally speaking. Of course, all the children, and the young at heart, are thoroughly enjoying the snow and all the fun associated with its presence and even we have thrown the odd snow ball at each other and Alice has simply romped through its crunchy-powdery glory, returning home with snow all over her coat and with snowy paws.
However, its presence is now beginning to make life difficult in many ways and I've seen and heard of folk who really struggle to cope in snowy conditions. Why, today, as we were driving down the road, I saw a frail old lady making her way very gingerly along the pavement, and holding a long-handled garden fork as a walking stick to steady her gait. But of course, bravo to her for getting up and outside to get some fresh air and exercise; I did wonder if the lady had anyone to help with her shopping - I do hope so!
Well, it's supposed to be warmer at the weekend and the snow has been thawing but then last night it snowed again, very slowly and gently, and completely managed to cover my car again. Tomorrow I'm hoping to go out for a church seminar with lunch but it all depends on what the weather does tonight?
