Hot take: I love weather hype! The energy, anticipation, watching and waiting—love it!
I tune into the Weather Channel for a storm like some watch the Super Bowl. Bring on snacks and hot cocoa. Just washed my windows so the dog and I can keep our noses to glass as the snow moves in. 😂
Granted, I’m also praying for my kiddos and friends and everyone down south who is at risk for ugly ice and power outages and damages. I’m grateful it’s the weekend so the number of people who need to be on the road is minimized. I remember packing a bag for extended shifts when I was working as a nurse—and i dreaded being away from my family during storms, but knew i was where i needed to be.
I’ve got a few more chores and errands today, bread to bake, laundry to get ahead of…but I’ve got an eye on Fern like I’m stalking the location of one of the kids driving home for Christmas.
Stay safe everyone, be kind, embrace this forced slow down. Dust off the puzzles and games. Lord Jesus, I trust in you. 🙏🏼❤️
