What a bunch of wusses. A few inches or feet or whatever of snow and everyone acts like it's the complete collapse of civilization as we know it and perhaps the end of the world soon may hove to on the horizon before it's all over.
It snows, deal with it. It doesn't really matter how deep it gets since you only have to deal with the same top part of whatever's on the ground. It might be fodder for a spot of oohing and ahhing, sniveling and kvetching, but still; just put a sock in it and deal with it.
Hahahaaaa........... you must be the abominable snowman, huh ?? Hi Mr Yeti.
No, no one is treating it like it's the end of the world at all. Preparing for it and being responsible is part of anyone's character. While it starts out like a postcard or beautiful winterscape, it usually ends up a bit of a disaster for many. Some people have already died from it. Where I live, the power almost always goes out due to the ice and heavy snow, knocking down power lines. During such blizzards like this, our fireplace is prepared, food is ready, extra clothes, flashlights and the generator for when the outage occurs. It is almost always when..... and not if.
So, while we do indeed deal with it, it's still fun to talk about it. Our socks are better fitted for our feet at this time.
The thing I like most about these storms is..... it puts everything into perspective. Earth and Mother Nature still rule. Earth...... you know that place....... that's where you're from, right ??
Anyway, at 6 this morning, we were around 14" and the main storm hasn't gotten here, yet. We'll see.
