Winter & sick
Vermont has some serious winter. When I got up yesterday morning, the temperature was -7 with a wind chill of -20. Have you ever stepped outside and felt the snot on your nose hairs freeze? I have. Today, the weather service has issued a blizzard warning and we’re supposed to get 16-26 inches of snow in a 24-hour period. Looking outside, it seems like we’re well underway.
Speaking of snot, I’ve got plenty to go around. It would seem that I’ve gotten myself a sinus infection. The doc says it’s viral, and that I’ll just have to sit it out (I’m glad he didn’t blindly throw antibiotics at me like they used to). So I’ve got some generic Claritin and a jumbo box of tissues and I’m just going to sit here and watch it snow.

Well, I’m jealous. (Not for the sick part, of course) The only snow we get anymore is the occasional flurry. It’s rather irritating for someone who likes a real good snowstorm a few times each winter, like TN used to experience…
