The weather today is easy to see. All you have to do is look outside and you can see that it is snowing. It started early this morning and doesn’t seem to be letting up. There is already an inch or two on the ground with more coming. The wind is pretty high today and this is blowing the snow around and making it very cold. I am looking forward to spring and an end to this weather!

I was kind of looking forward to seeing one of the rare but beautiful sights in the world. The Leonid meteor shower is due to peak in the early hours of Tuesday morning. People in Asia will have some of the best views of this annual event, but Americans will still get a pretty good show.

The comet Tempel-Tuttle will streak by in its 33 year orbit around the sun. The trail of debris it leaves behind becomes the best show in town. Be sure to find an area where there are few lights as they can interfere with the view. I hope to see you out early watching the show!

Since the weather has gotten a lot nicer, I have been working in the garden more often. The other day it had rained in the night and since I had turned the dirt, it was very muddy. It’s a good thing I had my old pair of Muck Boots. They kept my feet warm and dry.

I really like these boots. They are not real heavy like the ones we had when I was a kid. They also have a mesh lining that helps keep your feet dry. I also like the fact that they don’t have shoelaces to mess with. Whenever I see rain in the forecast, I know I am ready to take on the garden anyway.

It’s another rainy day. Whenever I wake up and it’s raining, I always feel like staying in bed. It always seems so quiet. I’d much rather see the sun shining through the window and welcoming me to the new day.

For now, I guess I’ll have to live with it, but I’ll sure be glad when the sun comes back! I think the cats like the sun as well. They don’t seem to like the rain very much. They are so funny when their paws get wet!

The weather has been terrible lately. It’s been raining for three days. Driving to work is not too bad as it is light enough to see. It’s driving home that bothers me. By the time I’m ready to leave work, it is dark out. Driving in the dark when it’s raining is hard to do. It seems that a lot of other people have a problem with it as well. I passed by one accident on the way home and was almost in one myself. I hope they were alright. I’ll sure be glad when the sun returns!
