Written for RDP, where Martha asks us
to get creative with the word ‘perspective’.
Thanks, Martha! Here’s my take.

From My Perspective
Looking out my bedroom window
The perspective is rather bleak
Everywhere I look is ice and snow
I think I’ll stay in all week

I’d be inclined to stay in too! Snow and ice don’t mix well with walking outside!

I am not a winter person at all! If I had a choice, I’d go straight from fall to spring. 😂
Thanks, CA ☃️

Snow is fun to visit and play in. I grew up in snow country but for the last 33 years the only thing I shovel are the presents my little dogs leave for me in the backyard.

Hahaha! Fortunately, in my part of NY, we rarely experience major snowstorms and by mid-March it’s unusual to get snow at all. However, we have had snow on Easter once or twice so we’re not completely out of the woods until early April. Enjoy your shoveling!

Nicely done Nancy. Snow is best enjoyed from inside a warm room.

It’s been -40 all week and I have not left the house- I HAVE to today to get gas (as I keep running my car every day even though I am not driving it)- and pick up my grocery order! It looks like we are gonna get a break in the weather like Monday- sooooooo….

I was thinking of you as I wrote this, imagining you saying “She thinks that’s ice and snow? She wouldn’t last a day here!” Kinda like how I feel and laugh when Atlanta get’s 1/4 inch of snow and there’s gridlock!
Stay safe, Jodi.
