Your Daily Cup O'Angie...

After reading the weather report on WeatherBug yesterday, I was anticipating waking-up to a blanket of freshly fallen snow...sooo much snow that I would teeter on the line with the decision -- to work or not to work?  I love days like that...  Snow Days.  Are there 2 better words paired-up?  Well...I can think of two other words that I would like paired-up...but alas, I shalln't digress.

Soooo I woke-up this morning, donned my fuzzy, pink robe & slippers, meandered out to the kitchen and poured myself a mug o'coffee (Berrers Brother's Chocolate Raspberry....if you haven't tried it, BUY IT!  DRINK IT!  IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE!)....where was I?  Oh yes, after a sip of the heavenly brew, I pulled open the blinds to discover....NO SNOW!!!!!  What in the world?

I distinctly remember WeatherBug stating that we were under some Winter Storm/Weather-ish Advisory.  Snow, blowing snow, accumulation...all words used to describe the wrath of winter that was going to embark on the northern-most part of Illinois. 

And this...NO SNOW! 

I just don't understand.  It's January 12th.  No snow.  Not a flurry...not a smidge-bit-o'-fluff.  That's it -- if it doesn't snow by the end of this month, I am going to buy flocking (is that what it's called...the faux snow?) and I am going to spray all around the outside of the cottage.

Dear Snow,
Your lack of concern for my mental well-being has just confirmed that our relationship is ova.  O-V-A. 
Sincerely,
The Girl with Curly Hair
P.S. Spring is, and will still remain, my favorite.  Just sayin'...
