Anyway...It was absolutely gorgeous today - the trees, all dressed up in white, houses with the white puff blankets on the roofs, driveways that nobody has walked on yet. The snow was enough to cover green grass and to imitate the real winter landscape…The snowflakes were slowly swirling down to the ground in the gracious dance…and as I was driving along the street early hours of the morning, watching how the white kingdom awakes to the day, I felt happiness and contentment…and John Prine’s voice on a background made the picture look like an old black&white movie scene from the 60s…nice old Christmas-time story…(ahem...in the end of February :-/ )
I’ve arrived to the office and just didn’t want to go indoors – so beautiful it was outside! I’ve stayed a bit longer and made a little Snowman to sit by my car. He turned out to be quite cute with a big ears and a green salad leaf in one hand…
It was a snow this morning…even if nobody believes in it now, as two and a half hours later I’m looking out the window here to see grey –ish roads, few puddles here and there and bleak green bushes and grasses on the other side of a road…there is not a trace of a white miracle of this morning…and my Mr. Snowy already half-cried out into a little puddle by my car's wheel…

Loved your entry about the magic of it all
Very beautifully written
I believe the big snow storms are over for us in Utah, (*knock wood) sure as I say that we will have a true northerner..
Off to school to try my hardest to save GS again. He is so overwhelmed with his current load of classes.. I couldn't carry all these subjects.. and he is really depressed that he isn't Mr. miracle man..
Oh being the momma.. grandma.. Joy
I finished the book.. Card's Pastwatch. I didn't think it was all that ! I was ready for more. at first I thought it was going to be really good, but oh well. I don't know if I'll read another of his or not.. You said speaker for the dead was good and I may see if it is at library
I got some classic's now.. and am reading them
Tolstoy, Hesse, Taylor, Ginsberg
Have a wonderful Full Moon day
