I was so sure today was the 1st of Feb I wrote an email to a friend rejoicing in it. Then Ailz pointed out that January has 31 days and always has done. Bummer. 

February is the grimmest month and I'm keen to get it over with. I've never understood why T. S. Eliot was so down on April. April is lovely.

As it is, we seem to be heading into an extra cold spell. Yesterday was bitter but at least we saw the sun. Today is equally cold- perhaps colder- and completely overcast. I just stepped outside and a couple of things that looked a lot like snow flakes fell past me.

Ha - and this year February is longer than usual, too!

Here, today's forecast high is 63°F (17°C). The historic average is 39°F (4°C). It's been freakishly warm like this for most of the month. A week ago, I saw mosquito!

Yes...Siberia is sending its freezing air to the whole continent and to your island.
Even we down here in southern Spain are expecting frost over the weekend and highs of only 12-13. That, for us, is polar.
My poor garden.

That's it. I'm still in bed, it's my last day off before returning to work, and here I'm staying :)

I'm expecting snow, though it hasn't happened yet.

Actually it hasn't even hit us yet - J says he doesn't need his hat on to go out. So I guess I am just lazy!

Here in Wisconsin we're having a bit of a freakish pre-spring thaw. Surely the next snowstorm is just around the corner -- but if the old dirty snow and ice melts away first, I'm good with that. ;-) Our chickens and rabbits are out having a wonderful time in the sun.
