With the recent snowstorms that have hit the east coast, I have been right in the middle of ground zero. It seems that after each storm is done, another is on its way. There is snow everywhere and it doesn’t want to go away. My car is a mess and I need to get it washed soon, but I guess it will just get dirty again!

I’ll be glad when we have a nice day with sunshine and a little warmth. As much as I like snow, too much of anything can be a pain in the butt! Spring is almost here and so I’ll just have to look forward to that!

Tonight marks the first full moon of the year 2010. Because it is the first full moon, it is also known as the wolf moon. This name dates back to American Indian culture and their belief that wolfs howl at moon because they are hungry. There is also an added bonus that comes with tonight’s bright moon.

When the moons orbit is closest to us, it is called perigee. When perigee and a full moon coincide, as they will tonight, the result is a brighter, bigger moon. This means that some features of the moons surface will be very visible. I hope that everyone will be able to take a few minutes to walk outside and check out this rare and awesome sight!

We had such a storm today I couldn’t believe it. I’ve seen a lot of bad weather in my life but today was one of the worst in recent memory. The rain was coming down so hard that I could hardly see my neighbor’s house! The cats all were hiding under the bed as the thunder was really loud and they wouldn’t come out for anything.

I checked the weather to see if the worst was over but it may not be. I’m glad I am inside today and have already done my shopping this morning. At least something went right! I’ll let you if we survive or if we are all washed away.

Today started out as one hot day. This morning it was so hot I thought I would melt. I couldn’t wait to get to work so I could relax in the air conditioning. As usual, my luck ran out and as I started on my way home it started to rain. Isn’t that always the way? I guess I should be glad that at least it will cool down some. I hope the weather is better tomorrow.
