January 12 So far this year…There was a dusting of snow Monday morning of this week after some really cold wind the day before. We went to church but going back and forth to the car was unpleasant, to say the least. Fortunately, the weather was decent for the drive home on the 2nd and held so that I was able to get the Christmas decorations squared away in the attic. Then there was another dusting of snow Wednesday morning. It was too cold for outside work, so Abigail and I took the week off. Snow was predicted for Thursday, and I considered grocery shopping Wednesday afternoon but didn’t. Should have. The forecast proved correct, and it snowed from about 7:00 am till sometime after I went to bed. I ventured out early and bought groceries. The snow wasn’t deep then but by the time I went to a 10 o’clock appointment it was beginning to mount up. We may have gotten as much as a foot of snow. It was more than we’ve seen in some years. The weatherman said eight inches of snow equals an inch of rain so we got from an inch to an inch and a half of much needed moisture which should extend our reprieve from watering for a month or two even if we don’t get moisture during that time.
