I’d not resort to choice four letter words were it late November already, but it’s not even Halloween yet!
No, this winter wonderland is not what I wanted to see from my window today. Or for that matter, through my windshield, as I was driving back home from a visit to Home Depot and Loblaws earlier tonight.
At least it gave me an opportunity to start this winter as a good Samaritan. When I was trying to back out of my spot at the Loblaws parking spot, I couldn’t see where I was going, so I had to get out and brush the snow off my rear window. While I was at it, I offered my services with the brush to the owner of the car in the next spot, which he gladly accepted.
Cheer up. I’ve lived in Ottawa all my life. 30 years ago, this storm would have been several weeks overdue. :-)
Okay, okay, I’ve lived in Ottawa for 23 years already, too, and I remember some tough winters. But… that doesn’t mean I have to like it! Whatever happened to this global warming thing anyway?
