Dear Mother Nature…

23rd March 2010

Dear Mother Nature,

Please make up your mind. It seems of late you have many rather wishy washy and can’t seem to decide if it is Winter or, as the calendar states, Spring. I don’t mind one way or the other, but I really am not enjoying the current pattern of radical changes on a day to day basis. So please, I am begging you, make up your mind.

Thank you,

The Sewing Mom

Why am a complaining to Mother Nature? Well, let’s see. Last Friday, here in Dallas, we were enjoying beautiful sunshine with nice temperatures hovering around 70 F. Of course, my daughter’s softball team was scheduled for a tournament Saturday and Sunday, so WHAM! Mother Nature decided to show her fury and hit us first with very cold rain and temperatures in the low 40’s, combined with high sustained winds making it feel like it was in the 30’s. Tournament canceled. Then, as if that wasn’t bad enough, we got ready to go to bed on Saturday night and looked out the window to see this:

I thought for sure it would be gone by the time we woke up on Sunday, but instead, this is what we woke up to and it stuck around until late on Monday.

Now today it’s 75! Make up your mind!

Wow!!

Often the temps at Dallas and here are much the same.
Here it was nice and sunny, even though the night was could.
Tomorrow we’re expecting…. sit down…. yes,…. sit down…. breath in… 20 degrees celcius!!!! That’s a wow too.

Oh, I know! My step-daughter flew to Dallas last Thursday to get some sun and fun (we live in NY), but to her dismay…it was snowing! We had sunshine and unseasonably warm 60’s that day. She was so disappointed!

I am so happy we haven’t had any more snow, but we did have lots of rain now it’s windy and cooler. I’m almost ready for a very hot Summer, but I’ll be complaining then also.

Oh, fer crying out loud. I thought nice weather this time of year is why people lived in Texas. Mother Nature didn’t get the memo apparently.

I’m not sure about that side of the Atlantic (never had the pleasure), but over here it’s a fact that weather is about as sure as sure can be.

Most people like to take an overcoat “just in case”. Over in England it’s all about taking shorts “just in case”. The rest of the time we hide under our many layers of wax-covered water proofing.

Then there’s that one magical day.. Come on sunshine.

Nothing like a snow storm by the pool. Ugh! It’s doing the same thing here, except that’s normal in Chicago. I wish spring would stay already.
