A cold nose

Winter has finally kicked in so it seems. I just got back from having a drink over at Sjeed's place, and now I'm completely covered with snow even though it was only a ten minute walk. My nose is cold, but generally I kinda like this. It doesn't happen that often anymore in Holland to have it snowing, so I'm feeling blessed with this winter wonderland!

I really hope we'll have a snow storm tonight so that everything will be covered in white tomorrow morning when I go to work. It's always a sort of cosy thing to see all the people gasping at the snow, especially the fun little children have with it. I may be more of a summer person because I don't like the cold, but I sure like snow!

It's weird isn't it? Snow used to be quite a common sight in my childhood, and nowadays it seems a rare thing. Maybe that's just perception, and there really hasn't been that much snow when I was little, but it does seem as though it happened more often like ten years ago. Could this be an effect of global heating? In that case, let's all enjoy it while it lasts!
