Weather Report

Nanty Glo, PA: 18 degrees (which is better than the 3 degrees we were suffering from four days ago) and snowing

Ferrum VA: 43 degrees and sunny

How fair is that? I want to move NOW!

For those of you who don't know, Ferrum VA is where I'll be moving to for college this fall. Because of that my mom and I have been keeping track of the weather there... we wanted to see if we'd still be turning into human Popsicles next winter. As it turns out, they do get snow, but seriously 43 degrees!!! 43 degrees and sunny! I can deal with some snow if I can go outside and stand in the lovely, soothing, gentle, WARM rays of the sun.

I forget what the sun even looks like. All I can think of is snow. Every where I look there is snow. It's outside, inside, making puddles on my floor, and causing much emotion from everyone around me.

Before Blacklick valley, I was home schooled. I didn't have to get up and go outside in the freezing weather. Because of that, I loved snow! I loved it! I'd pray for it's arrival and delight in the sparkly frozen water for hours. I'd bundle myself up and my dog and we'd go sledding. I'd start snowball wars with my neighbors. I'd make snow-people. I'd lay down and make snow angels. I shoveled paths galore for Mackenzie (aka the dog).




But, now I do have to get up. I have to actually get up out of my nice warm bed and venture out in the brutal cold that is Western PA.

Let me tell you, it's not that fun. I've yet to go sledding, make snow angels, or any of that jazz. Really, when I'm not in school I'm drinking hot chocolate and spending time on facebook (you thought I was going to say writing, didn't you? Well, unfortunately, I've been a little lazy lately. It's school, I tell you! It drains me until I can't make myself throw words at the computer screen!).

Then, to top it all off, tonight and tomorrow we're getting a huge snow storm... according to the people who sit behind the desks on the TV and go on about 20mph winds and precipitation rates.

Yuck!

Well, that's all for now.

But, before you go, here's a word from our sponsors... Hot Chocolate cures all. Whatever your mood it will brighten your day and fix your problems, guaranteed!

For those who are suffering from all the white stuff coming down from the gloomy sky, stay warm! And, for those who are sunbathing still, tell the sun to take a trip towards western PA. We need it! LOL

Until next time,
Stasia
