Weather and Life Goes On

Good afternoon! I thought I would write out some thoughts for this March 2, 2010.

Snow is expected--sort of.

Sunshine has disappeared for a few more days. More to come, I am sure!

You know, the weather is more than just a conversation starter. One of the most amazing developments in these last few years is that the weather has its own full time army of staff on a 24-hour channel or two. So, the weather is more than just a conversation starter--it has become the the conversation.

Isn't it interesting that what takes up most of our time is something about which we can do little about. We just react and are the victims of it...or change our habits or clothing or plans to get along with it!

You know, recently, I read a diary of a lady from the early 20th century and she mentioned the weather every day. It was just a note, unless it was something other than fair for the spring and fall, hot for the summer, or cold for the winter months.

So, I guess weather will continue to be a part of our lives even though we live in climate-controlled lives indoors and travel in climate controlled vehicles.

So, life changes and stays the same. That's part of the legacy we leave for the next generation!
