Snow...BOOOOO

This morning, our girls got up at 6am sharp and we had a daughter and Daddy/Baba fest in bed. Rose demanded we turn on the lights, Eva demanded we turn on the TV, and Daddy and Baba tried to get them to cuddle so we could steal a bit more sleep...NOT GOING TO HAPPEN...was their response.

So out of bed reluctantly goes Daddy. Weekends are generally his time to feed the kiddos. Baba stole a bit more sleep. But not too long. I got up, donned my thermals, a long sleeve shirt, jeans, my wool socks, boots, made a bagel egg sandwich for breakfast, sucked down some caffeine, and made my way outside for clean-up.

You see, Mother nature has decided to F*** with us and dump snow on us. This meant I had to winterize a month early and in a hurry. All I have to say is @#_Q@*)&#^%@#%^$#!#^!^&@!!!!!

So as I sit hear and type this, getting ready to go to bed, it's snowing. A transformer blew on the street across from us rendering them in the dark. I have heard a few other transformer blowing in the distance. I truly hope Mother Nature is enjoying the mayhem she is causing...and as I type this, BOOM!  A VERY LARGE tree limb just crashed down in the middle of the street in front of our house.

I shall repeat... #*(@#*)@(&^@#^%$#!!!

Oh, snow already! We are still in our autumn season. Nevertheless, the Northern parts of Sweden also already have had their first snow.
I'm hoping this winter will arrive with less snow than the past one. Especially since our friends will be looking after our house during 6 weeks while we are in India.
Greetings from the South of Sweden!

Move North to Canada! No snow here! Actually the Canandian news channels enjoyed showing your snow yesterday!

I think this is our earliest snowfall ever! Luckily we got by with only an inch or so! Happy shoveling!

Hi Mike!
Can you believe the kids are 2 1/2 years already! However - you can keep the snow. Here in Sydney it is 22 degrees, sunny and the kids are shorts and shirts. Sorry - couldn't help myself! Jen
