This just in, ladies and gentlemen, Gomaringen has snow! The town continues as usual but now under a beautiful blanket of white. The snow brings with an unmistakable winter spirit that brings the children rushing out into the bitter cold, bundled by very experienced mothers, and before long snowmen, snow angels, and the remains of countless snow balls are expected to be found scattered throughout the town. This long awaited season of winter isn't something unusual for the citizens of Gomaringen, however, there have been unconfirmed reports and sightings of a teenage American girl exhibiting an abnormal amount of excitement and as one individual put it, "freaking out about the snow". More to come as the story unfolds. :-D

Okay, so I'm just going to plead guilty as charged and continue on in my excitement--SNOW!!! For those of you laughing, I don't mind. For those of you rolling your eyes, I'm from Coquille, where school is cancelled when we have half an inch so give me a little break and let me pretend I'm 10 again!:-) I will admit that a world of white does trigger an extreme lack of desire to go to school but my mood was so high that nothing could bring it down. Perhaps it is a bit pathetic that I act like a lovestruck adolescent over the weather...but it wouldn't be the first time I've appeared pathetic and certainly won't be the last! :-)
Oh, and it isn't even 6:30pm and I've already had five cups of tea...hehe

How beautiful! I know I'm not supposed to be jealous....but I am wishing we would have some snow here. Alas, temps near 70 today, the last day of January...the middle of "winter"....huff.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy it!
Hugs, Aunt T.
Beautiful, beautiful! Enjoying your pictures makes me want to listen to Christmas music and have hot cocoa!
ReplyDeleteI would say send some our way, but reading your posts about packaging...it would only arrive as rain in the summer anyway ;)
This 30+ American mom would be right there with you playing & "freaking out!" :)
Well, now I feel like a child again, looking at your snow pictures. You still have an excuse for getting so excited, but a woman my age!! Oh my. I know that I would be outside enjoying the snow, and catching flakes on my tongue.
ReplyDeleteWow...you are having a blast. I "feel" it in your writings, and your many stories.
I love you! Grammy
