December's End. Forecast for Snow.
"Some people love waking to the sight of new snow. Fallen snow is fine, but I like the sight of it falling, fine as dust or so fat you can hear it land against the kitchen window. I like the tunnel of dry snow you drive through at night, the headlights blanking out a few yards ahead, and the feeling that you're driving into some abysmal vacuum. I like the ground-blizzards and the snow that slithers down the road ahead of you. What I like is the visual impairment snow brings with it, the way it obscures some things and defines others, like the wind." - ---Verlyn Klinkenborg from The Rural Life
Maybe it will be possible to run that cattle drive in reverse tomorrow...

It may have been in the air. It was the same for the hospice hot line yesterday. Some people tend to leave things until the eleventh hour frequently. Fridays nights always bring a lot of last minute calls.
ReplyDeleteThank God it's over. Would not want that day twice in a row.
ReplyDeleteThe visual for the day--my 260# patient ripping off his monitor leads and getting up out of bed through the bedrails so that he could stand and pee ON TOP OF his bed.
...That was before the restraints:>)
Surprisingly those scenes are not on Grey's Anatomy.
The photo was so funny to me, but then I just read your reply to comments and THAT is even funnier!
