Countin' Chickens
I could just be countin' my chickens before they're hatched but the weather man says we're in line for two to six inches of snow between tonight and tomorrow night. First of all, Just about any Marylander would roll their eyes at even bothering to give six inches a second thought and the rest of them would laugh at me for giving a second thought to what the weatherman says!
Still, I was living in Houston Texas when I had my stroke, and last Winter in Maryland was unseasonably warm. I haven't experienced my first post stroke snow yet and the thought of it has my little brain in overdrive. I can't say I'm worried or scared because my thoughts drift anywhere from, "I'll be fine", to "I'll be fine because I ain't going out there!"
There is no sensible reason I "need" to go outside but that;s just the time people where I live think they're going to die if they don't go and what's sensible never stood in my way before...oh well.
Then my mind drifts to my stroke friends in this storm's path and I hope you're all really careful and then remember you've dealt with it before and probably aren't worried a bit. Well, be careful anyway...I'll be inside thinking hiding from the big, bad snowflakes!
