We Got Snow

Total accumulation is somewhere around 6 inches. WHY is it so hard to find the Official Snowfall Totals!?!? Google you have failed miserably! No matter the wording of the query, Google can't or won't go there.
Well, 
HUMPHF!

As Darren McGavin, playing Old Man Parker in the BRILLIANT movie "A Christmas Story" put it-
You filty sicken hookaid! Oh, smelly wok buster! Grout shell fratten house stickle fifer! You bladder puss nut grafter! Dorton hoper... You wart mundane noodle! Shotten shifter paskabah! Snort tonguer! Lame monger snaffa shell cocker!

WELL SAID!

Here's a WIP taken at 6:52 am-
Mama Nat has donned one of her winter mantles.
The conditions at 6:53 am were 28°, 96% humidity, calm winds and partly cloudy skies.
My hope for a Fairy Island mosey has been cancelled by the snow accumulation total, the possible lack of plowing, the possible denied path access, the lack of proper footwear for some participants and a lack of energy brought on by the tiny amount of shoveling done this morning to try and prep for a timely liftoff. I never made it to the car, let alone the driveway, let alone the walkway! What the h%$#! We're talking a minute amount, minimal, verging on insignificant as far as shoveling goes. And yet I want to do nothing but sit down right now. My growling stomach, begging me for food, can not entice me from a seated position. Not even the promise of cheap shopping, which, I found out, must be done TODAY or not at all, has moved me out of a sedentary position. That's what I get every time I try to pretend I'm an event planner.

But that's ok! How does Mike Rowe put it? "Just because your passionate about something doesn't mean you won't suck at it.---That’s why I would never advise anyone to “follow their passion” until I understand who they are, what they want, and why they want it. Even then, I’d be cautious. Passion is too important to be without, but too fickle to be guided by. Which is why I’m more inclined to say, “Don’t Follow Your Passion, But Always Bring it With You.”
Again with the
WELL SAID!
But, where the hell did that come from. Oh, the brain, it is to ponder. But HEY! I just live there. I had nuttin' to do with the architecture.
