You know how you kind of learn how many steps there are in or around your house so you don’t pay any atten­tion? You kind of skip down them not even think­ing, until one day you miss one and every­thing feels off ’cause you didn’t land on the foot you always land on, or your foot is sus­pended in mid air? Or you know exactly how many steps to the bath­room, but not really as you’ve never counted them, you just know how it FEELS? Well I kept won­der­ing why it felt weird lately every time I came in from out­side and it dawned on me today that our bot­tom step is gone. Well, not gone. The step is still there but the snow on the side­walk is even with the step so instead of 3 steps into the house there are now 2. How I didn’t notice before is beyond me. How there can still be that much snow on the side­walk is even a big­ger ques­tion. Now with this new, crusty, sleet frozen top­ping on it every­thing is so much more fun! And they’re say­ing rain for Sat­ur­day then a cold front mov­ing in? And it’s still only Jan­u­ary? Sheesh.
