The Sky is Falling


My 4 kids came home yesterday carring bright yellow papers with warnings about snow, and making sure there was enough food in the house, and admonishing people not to bring their BBQ grills inside to stay warm. Okay, I live in the southwest, very southwest, New Mexico at the bottom. We do get occasional snow flurries and we made a 3 foot skinny snowman out of all the snow in our front and back yard once. This picture is the kids trying desperately to have a snowball fight with little snow!

I woke this morning at 5:30am, to skies that were thick, but the ground dry.

My hubby is a civil servant for the nearby Air Force Base and his boss called last nite to tell him not to come in until 10am!

Perhaps the storm is not fully here yet, but I am feeling a bit like Chicken Little is the weather service. http://www.weather.com/weather/alerts/?alertId=43831&dbSeq=null&cameFrom=national


It is now 7:45am and there is some snow falling. The kids leave for school in a bit, hmm is the sky falling?
