A Yearly Gift...

So it's that time of year again where the Calendar tells you it's Spring but the Weather refuses to cooperate...consequently it is also the time of year in which I am reminded that I am getting older...and it is also when my Mother calls me to remind me that labor is not fun and I nearly killed her...a fun reminder at six in the morning...
Yup you guessed it..It's my birthday!...And this year it looks as if the Weather is giving me its traditional gift...snow. It has snowed every year on my Birthday...

EVERY YEAR...it has even snowed when it wasn't predicted...it's like this one day, the entire Cosmos get together to play a little joke on me...I've given up planning outdoor birthday parties...and I think that I will be truly shocked if I were to wake up and see the sun...

EVERY YEAR...I think it would snow even if I were to move to the desert...Weather people would call it a fluke...they wouldn't know what to blame...I alone would know...

It's because on this day I came into the world in all sorts of bluster and noise and so I must remember that...EVERY YEAR...but hey, at least I always know what the day will be like if not the year in between...

So wish me luck and help me gather some snowballs...
