Tulips look a bit tattered after the snow. But only a few have broken off

A few inches of snow today in #Maine. Construction stops for the weekend.
I guess we're going to have second winter before we get real spring. #Gardening #Zone5 #SpringSnow #SecondWinter

We woke up to this…

Well that’s a fine how-do-ya-do. Screw you, never ending winter.
Even Robin the cat is depressed by all of this crap.

If April showers bring May flowers, what the fuck does April snow bring?
Every time I think about what I might do in the flower gardens this year, I wake up to new snow. #Gardening #Zone5 #SpringSnow
Our cook is freezing — spring took a coffee break and winter came back with snow boots on!
Still, wrapped in a warm sweater, he's cooking up something special.
A hearty winter soup. Nourishing, comforting, the kind that hugs you from the inside.
Recipe coming soon.
It's gonna be finger-lickin’ good!
Not Again
I posted something yesterday about how there was a little bit of snow during my morning commute and how snow in April sucks the big one.
I have been in meetings all morning today. Back to back to back, one after the other. Woah, that’s a lot of meetings. At a few minutes after noon I was listening in to the third meeting in the string and something caught my eye outside of the window. I was on a video conference so I didn’t want to stare at the goings on outside so I took the briefest of glances.
It was snowing like a freakin’ blizzard. Oh, fer cryin’ out loud. What the hell, mother nature?
It didn’t last long. I took a second side-eye glance about 20 minutes later and there was still some snow falling but it was much lighter. 15 minutes after that the meeting ended and the snow had slowed down to a few random flakes.
All in all this past winter was not that bad. It was very cold, and February had a ton of snow. Outside of that, it could have been much worse. Why then are we having to deal with snow falling on both the seventh and eighth of April. It is most definitely not winter any longer. At least it isn’t sticking but still… come on. Enough is enough. I want my spring to look and feel like spring.
Winter, go home. Your mother nature is calling you. Jerk.
Fortunately, the bears haven’t found the feeders yet, so there is some food left for the birds. Just yesterday, spouse was commenting on how the grass had finally started to green up and spring was really here. Jinxed it.

Weather is a Jerk
It is April so if there is one thing we can count on it is rain in New England. Today is at least the forth consecutive day with rain in my town. Forth or fifth? Something like that. It’s raining again.
Or is it? Is it more than that?
Yeah… I was driving in to the office and sure enough there was snow falling. Not a lot. Just the occasional snow flake mixed in with the drizzle. Today is April 7th and there is snow falling. Well honk my hooter, April snow. Ugh.
I tried to take a picture of Robin the Cat before I left the house. I needed to do the photo a day thing. I pointed my phone at her as she was exploring the laundry basket that I failed to put away yesterday. Just as I was about to click the shutter button she saw me and ran away and this is the photo I got…

Happy Monday, folks. It’s going to be a tough one, I think. All the signs are pointing that way.

A bit of a setback to my plans to get the gardens ready. #Gardening #Zone5 #SpringSnow
Pt 2 Crystals and Clouds

I'm not a music person so I had no idea 10CM was so talented.
His Lovely Runner song led me to this playlist of great OST songs from "Queen of Tears," "Goblin," "My Demon," "Our Beloved Summer" & more
Colorado's spring snowstorm piles on up to 25 inches in north-central mountains, adding to seasonal totals.
Boulder's peaks hit hard, Denver sees 2-3 inches. Unsettled weather to persist with more snow and rain expected.
