I Hate Snow...I Swear I do..

I hate snow...I swear I hate snow...I fell in the parking lot....Mercifully, not on the side of my injured shoulder.....I lay there on my back for about five minutes...(I'll get up when I'm good and ready,I reasoned...) I looked around to make sure nobody witnessed it...Thankfully, nobody did...I slowly got myself up, looked around again...and put on my coolest West Philly stroll and walked out of the parking lot like nothing happened....#damnsnow....
I'm glad I wasn't the only person having mishaps out there....I was looking out of my boss's window...From the 7th floor of my office building..

Some man had a Hot chocholate or coffee or something and he just slipped and threw his cup up in the air...He didn't go down, but his coffee or cocoa is all over the sidewalk.....I feel for him...I know the feeling...

As you can tell...I don't do snow days well!

Glad you're ok! The snow and the sub-zero temps are the reasons I accepted a job offer out of Wisconsin a few years ago. When it snows here in Portland, it's about a half an inch at the most, with about 28 degrees (for maybe 3 days at the most) -and the city literally grinds to a halt. Everything closes. Even my job. I don't mind. And I have friends here who can't get enough of skiing or hiking in the show. They can have it.

I don't even go home to see family during the Christmas holidays because I hate the snow and cold.




KEEPING THE FAITH: RANDOM PRAYERS "ON THE DOWNLOAD"

DEAR GOD: Sometimes anger seems so near to the surface of my life. An unwelcome word, the remembrance of a past hurt, a disappointment I had not expected can make my emotions swirl with the force of a small cyclone. Sometimes my heart feels hot, my nerves feel edgy, my mind feels like lit dynamite. And sometimes, I just turn silent, go inward, cut myself off from anything and anyone that could ease the throbbing inside. I hold on to my anger, as if to let it go would render the reason for my anger meaningless. I pray that your great love will burn away my anger and leave me settled in the cool breeze of your presence. Help me let go, not only of the anger, but of what made me angry in the first place. Let me breathe deep the wonder and peace of love. Amen.
