26/1/19 12:11 Snow is beautiful, but I already miss the grass. Only, in between the two, there is the dreadful time when roads turn to ice :((((
So, let there be snow for a while yet! :)

1. What are your feelings about snow?
I like it - unless it is still snowing in May. But in winter, it makes everything very beautiful.

2. What is the one thing you really dislike that is associated with snow
If it melts and then there is frost again, everything is covered with ice and it becomes dangerous to walk outside. Happens many times every winter, unfortunately.

3 What is the one thing you really like that is associated with snow
The way it shines in the sun. Also, the winter holidays are, for me, connected with snow. That's two things, though :)

4. Do you anticipate or dread bad weather reports?
I know I should, but I don't usually follow weather reports. And then I am surprised why the weather is not what I'd actually expected...

5. Are you dreaming of a White Christmas?
I hope the snow lasts. My two Finnish Christmases were both without snow. It was pretty, too, with fairy lights everywhere, but just felt wrong. Especially when they were opening the Christmas Fair in the rain.

30/10/17 19:55 One of the disadvantages of having the skin on your fingers dried by the cold is that the dull ends of needles get into the finger tips very easily. I must get myself a thimble.

25/10/17 21:11Wind howling outside, scattering the brownish-yellow leaves. Can't say that all the beauty is gone, though: there is a certain sad kind of beauty in bare trees, fallen leaves and small patches of fragile first snow, too. And the cold - though it is much more pleasant to think of it while being inside.
But the cycling season is officially over :(

watching shadows
9/10/17 20:23In summer, I had to buy myself a wide-brimmed hat and attach ribbons to it to make a knot under the chin so that the hat would stay in place while I was cycling. Then, my shadow looked very much like a 19th century lady.
Now, in rainy weather, my shadow has turned into a mix of an angel and a Nazgul - with the dark "hood" where my rain hat is and the transparent wings of the rain cloak fluttering behind my back.
