Okay, so yesterday my tiny backyard was full of dead brown leaves and I thought about getting out there to rake them up – but – the wind was coming from the wrong direction and besides, today’s forecast was for some sunshine and 40+ degrees. Perfect. The wind would be coming from the NW, which would help me in the direction I have to rake the leaves, so today’s plan was to get out there and do one last clean up on that patch of dirt I call a back yard. Now, this morning the forecast is tossing in rain and barely 40 degrees. Come on…where’s the fairness in this? Give us a break! I don’t care. I’m getting out there and raking even if I’m being rained on. Another cold surge with snow is taking aim at us and this will be my last chance. Would have been nice, but it will be what it is. Thanks a lot, Mother Nature.
