Snow Drill



In Kansas we had Tornado Drills. It may be August but in Wisconsin we have Snow Drills!

I always said that I would like the snow. What in the world was I thinking????
Oh someone help me! Seriously I know it is August but I know it is coming. The white, fluffy stuff that just piles up as high as buildings.
The snow will be here in a few months and will hang around month after month after month. It makes the palms of my hands sweaty knowing how frigidly cold...(is that a word?) it will be. The amount of snow gear it takes just to get out the door on school days makes my head spin. The energy it takes to keep track of all the hats, scarfs, gloves, snow pants, jackets and hanging it all up strategically to dry in time for the next school day makes me want to take a nap.
I myself do not even own a pair of snow boots. My hope was that because I did own boots that would put me out of commission for shoveling. The day Bryan shoveled for 5 hours off and on I did help. Think a snow blower is calling our names!
On a positive note we are enjoying our summer of 70's and 80's!
