Snow… sort of

Winter has definitely arrived.  There was even a dusting of snow on the ground this morning (impressive, considering it rained most of the night, so the ground was pretty wet).

So far it hasn’t managed to get above 3^o today, with a messy mix of rain, hail, and sleet (and occasional bursts of either real snow or sunshine, each of which produces optimism in a different way). Basically it’s cold and wet and horrible out there, and I’d really like to be at home in front of the fire.  But at least the Lab’s south-facing window provides a nice exciting view of each on-coming band of nastiness as it hits 🙂
And yes, if you were wondering, my hair-less head is very very cold today.  Luckily Jenny knitted me a nice warm hat, which is getting a lot of use!
