Think snowy thoughts

janestarzWell, I know many people who own a car can name numerous reasons why snow is not fun. But I love snow, even if I have to stand outside in the cold waiting for a train or bus that won't show up!
However.
I do wish people were to clean at least 'their' part of the sidewalk. It's snowing like crazy here now, but I'll go downstairs and outside to do my part once it stops! I can manage on the slippery, trod snow, but the elderly can't!
And!
Having snow on the ice will seriously insulate the ice. The KNSB (Dutch skating union) says on their website it's frightfully dangerous to go onto the ice. It's far too thin, it doesn't grow when there's snow on it, and you can't see how thick it is.
And I'm a little bored now that I don't have a business to run anymore. Big black hole after stressful period anyone? Yep, that's it.
Ice skating would have been the perfect pastime. I'll bet you a thousand euro I can't get NoKey outside in what he would no doubt call a blizzard. I would like to build a snow-man though.
Poor NoKey, he gets cold so easily.
But yay! Snow!

Marianne's underwear still needs to be ready for the celebration at the Eleena temple, and Beriadanwen's pants are so going to rip during our mission if you don't do something about them. Your own costumes deserve your attention, my dear.
