Do I live in North Dakota? Near any Great Lake? Do I live in ALASKA? No. Do I live below the Mason-Dixon line? Yes. Is it October still? YES. Then why WHY did I wake up to this this morning?
I mean, really, weather, what’s going on here? The snow switched to sleet briefly and then right back to snow. It came down steadily ALL DAY LONG. I don’t live in #$*&% Minnesota, people!
If this is an omen, I may not be leaving the house this winter. I’ll have to get my groceries airlifted in. New tires just became a higher priority. Maybe I should teach the dogs how to pull a sled. And I can learn to snowshoe.
On top of that, it seems we now have two dogs with stomach problems, so off to the vet we will go (again) Monday morning.
(Obviously – or maybe not if you’re ignoring the news – everyone in the Northeast has it worse than us, but that is not the point. It’s not even Halloween yet, for crying out loud.)

Are you still thinking about moving to New England some day? Check out Boston’s weather?
Bring on the snow!
I managed to get a picture of my little guy’s face when he say snow for the first time – strange that it happened before Halloween, but hey – whaddya gonna do?
(And yes, Boston is no joke in the cold)

I wouldn’t say it’s the weather I’m objecting to so much as the timing of said weather. I’m fairly certain snow in October is out of the ordinary for Boston, too.
Greg – was he overjoyed or confused? Adorable either way, I’m sure.

He thought it was cool – took him a few minutes to figure out what was making his nose so cold. A couple of good pictures of it online; I’ll send you a link in an email.
