So, No Snow

The weatherpersons were so excited yesterday, touting snow down to 1,000 feet overnight.  I got a little excited myself.  I had understood not getting a white Christmas because we kept moving the date around, but it's nice to see a little snow at this time of year.  It validates the below-freezing temperatures we've been having.  In anticipation, I hauled more firewood up to the porch and dragged the last of the holiday decorations (such as they were) back out to the shed, did the laundry and vacuumed, ran the dishwasher; anything that a power outage would affect, just in case.  Other than the satisfaction of having the housework done, it was all for naught.  No snow.
