NO SNOW TO SHOW!

Truth be told, I was going to take the easy way out today and blog a Wordless Wednesday, showing you all the beautiful sights covered in snow (even though most of you can look out of your own windows and see them for your yourselves). But NOOOOO, here in St. Louis, instead of the predicted 10-20 inches, we get about 1-2 inches. Seriously! Yes, we did get the ice first, they got that right, but WAAAAAAY off on the snow accumulation.

How does that happen?

With all that sophisticated technology at their fingertips, how can our meteorologists get it SO WRONG, SO OFTEN???

Here’s my theory:  Mother Nature can be unpredictable (obviously). She likes to do her own thing. And being a woman, I’m sure that she changes her mind just to piss people off sometimes. She’s thinking, “Haha, they think I’m sending the storm due North, so I’m gonna just tweak it a bit and change its direction to the East a little tiny bit. BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!” (That was her evil laugh, because to her, a tiny bit is hundreds of miles off course.)

She’s a terrible mother!

Oh, and this week, she’s especially evil. Just because SHE doesn’t like football, she’s making it horrendous for everyone involved in the Super Bowl by giving Dallas cold weather and ice right before the big day. Really, Mother Nature? Just deal with the fact that football is here to stay. Give them some heat to melt your stupid ice!

RANDOM THOUGHTS

I don’t know, maybe I have adult ADD. Maybe it’s not just random forgetfulness and disorganization and old age. Maybe, just maybe, I can blame it on something else!

Here’s a sampling of what’s going on in my brain right now:

1. Okay, it’s 75 degrees outside, but for sure, if I bring out some clothes to wear, it will immediately turn cold again, so what’s the point. By the way, what to wear today when the boys are swimming in the indoor pool at the YMCA earning a cub scout badge, cuz it’s going to be really hot in there?
2. Somehow I need to get DH to sew my curtains before my jewelry party that I’m hosting next week.  Hmmm, how to do that?
3. And how to get everyone to really clean the house while I’m out of town this weekend so it looks good for the party?
4. In fact, how to keep them from totally destroying the house?
5. I think our calendar for cub scouts ends at the end of this year.  We still have January through May to plan for. Ugh!
6. How am I going to arrange the furniture for the jewelry party? And exactly what am I serving?
7. When am I packing for my trip to Dallas? Don’t forget to check in tomorrow morning so I’m in Group A.
8. Gotta start planning for Thanksgiving.  When is it again?
9. Don’t forget charity pickup before you leave for Dallas in the morning.
10. Maybe DH can get my laptop fixed while I’m in Dallas. Bwahahahahaha!!!!!!
11. I’m really behind on my Dr. Phil's and Oprah’s.  When, oh when, will I EVER catch up????

It just gets even more boring and crazy from there.  Does everyone have this problem?  (Please say yes!)  Besides organizing my desk, I need to organize my BRAIN!

Hmmm, maybe that’s an idea for our next book…
