This is priceless! Do read and enjoy!

Dear Diary...

August 15 - Moved to our new home in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts. It's so beautiful here. The lake to the north looks so majestic. I can hardly wait to see it snow covered. I'm going to love it here!

October 14 - Massachusetts is definitely the most beautiful place on earth. The leaves have turned all the colors and shades of red and
orange. Went for a ride through the park and saw some deer. They are so
graceful. Certainly they are the most wonderful animals on earth. This
must be paradise, I LOVE IT HERE!!

November 10 - Deer season will start soon. I can't imagine anyone wanting to k**l such a gorgeous animal. Hope it will snow soon. I love it here. Those red and orange leaves have covered my yard. Looks like a magnificent multi-colored carpet. HOW BEAUTIFUL. Raking and cleaning up the yard will be an opportunity for invigorating exercise in the cool crisp air.

November 15 - Ah, more leaves and more exercise.

November 18 - Jesus, still more leaves. Guess it's best to wait until they've all fallen before I rake again.

November 25 - Finally, all of the trees lost their leaves and with
today's final raking it's over for this season. Chiropractor suggested I use a lawn maintenance service next year. Only four blisters became infected. Should probably remember to use gloves.

November 30 - What the f...? Where did all of those leaves come from? Had a little wind last night and the lawn is covered again. Oh well,
they'll just have to wait until spring.
December 12 - It snowed last night, FINALLY. Woke up to find everything blanketed in white. It looks like a postcard. We went outside and cleaned the snow off the steps and shoveled the driveway. Had a
snowball fight (I won) and when the snowplow came by and we had to
shovel the end of the driveway again. What a beautiful place, Massachusetts!

December 14 - More snow last night, I love it. The snow plow did his trick to the driveway again. I Love it here.

December 19 - More snow again last night. Can't get out of the
driveway. Can't get to work. I'm exhausted from shoveling. F...ing
snowplow.

December 22 - More of that white s**t fell again last night. As if
dealing with the leaves weren't bad enough, now I've got blisters all
over my hands from shoveling, must remember to wear gloves. I think the snowplow hides around the corner and waits until I'm finished shoveling the driveway. The asshole.

December 25 - Merry F...ing Christmas. More frigging snow. If I ever get my hands on that son-of-a-b***h who drives the snowplow, I swear I'll k**l the bastard. Don't know why they don't use more salt on the
roads to melt the f...ing ice.

December 27 - More white s**t last night. Have been inside for three days except for shoveling out the driveway after that plow goes through every time. F...ing gloves got wet and then froze on my hands.
Doctor said it was just a mild case of frost bite, disfiguration is probably only temporary. Can't go anywhere, car is stuck in a mountain of white s**t. The weatherman says to expect another 10 inches of the s**t tonight. Do you know how many shovels full of snow 10 inches is?

December 28 - The f...ing weatherman was wrong. We got 34 inches of that white s**t. At this rate it won't melt 'till summer. The plow got stuck up the road and the bastard came to the door and asked to borrow a shovel. After I told him I'd already broken six of them shoveling all the s**t he pushed into the driveway, I broke my last one on his f...ing head.
January 4 - Finally got out of the house today. Went to the store to get food and on the way back I hit a damned deer that ran in front of
my car. Did about $3000 damage. F...ing beasts should be k**led. Wish
the h****rs had k**led them all last November.

May 3 - Took the car to the garage in town. The thing is rusting out from all the f...ing salt they put all over the roads.

May 10 - Moved to Naples, Florida. I can't imagine why anyone in their right mind would ever live in that God forsaken state of Massachusetts!

My sister just built a house in Mystic . She says this weather is very uncommon because most storms pass CT. by. I said you've only lived there for a year and a half and it is "New England".

Ok, two months in the summer are great. Spring can be nice, Fall can be nice.

Beautiful ocean views, they built a block away from the ocean.

WOW
Her tendency to down play this weather she is having is kind of cute, chilling but cute.

I moved from the east coast to AZ. 35 years ago.

115+degrees, the pool, the mountains, A/C. 16% humidity.

It rains, maybe 10 days a year, Ok maybe 12.

If I want to see the snow, I drive 125 miles north, if I want to play in the snow, I drive another 25 miles north.

I guess I'll just suffer!

The coast generally has more moderate temps and the storms, except for this year, usually miss that area.
Northern CT right now has sunshine and -5 deg wc.
We also have a record snowfall for 20 day period with more on the way. Only place left to put it is on top of what we already have.

So I understand.

But when you get the bad stuff, it's really bad.

Yep …. :-(
Fortunately, this snow is dry and light unlike what we got in Oct 2011 which was over 36" of heavy wet snow while the trees still had their leaves. But that's another story ….

There were no color movies in 1953.
Crayons hadn't been invented yet. :lol:

Just an update on NE weather from a CT igloo.
Sunny with a cool breeze and a high probability of frost bite.
-9 with -23 wc. And more snow in the morning hours.
