Nothing much has been going on up here in Northern Idaho. Halloween came and went. Ky & Chris went trick or treating without costumes & got a bunch of candy despite the fact. Football for Chris is finished and the high school varsity team is in the state semis. So our family Friday night football outings are just about over. Rob is excited that hockey has started & that the Ducks are winning (since the Steelers are almost not even worth watching this year). He keeps reminding me that the snow is going to be here soon! We have officially turned on the heat in our house & have put the electric blanket on our bed. We have been eating more soups & wearing more layers when we leave the house. I even went out and had new tires put on the Xterra so that I could stop before hitting something on icy/snowy roads.
But is winter really here? Last week is snowed. It did not stick for a long time but it snowed. This week is has rained and has not stopped. It has been raining here since last Thursday night. It has gone from pouring to misting for days & it is not letting up. Now the wind is adding to the miserableness of the rain! Wind makes wet weather 100% worse! Now the rain does not fall on you, it hits you & from all directions! With this rain has come some freaky warm weather. Last week it was cold enough to snow & now its 55+ degrees at night when I am at work! Our family is ready for winter to hit but will it?
This is all we ask from Mother Nature: Make up your mind!
