Snowing in Minnesota!

I cant believe it is only October 26th and it is snowing outside!!! What the heck?? I mean really it is not even the drama queens birthday and it is snowing? Now I have to go outside this week and put away all my lawn furniture and throw away all the no longer useful plants and face the fact that summer (which never really got off the ground anyway) is over and there was no fall to enjoy! Poor me, my beautiful flower gardens are gone and now being replaced by all my neighbors leaves (how do they blow over a 6 ft fence??) and yucky snow that has come waaaaaaay to quickly this year!! Although, I would not live anywhere else in the world then good old Bloomington Minnesota, I cant help but get a twinge of envy at the thought of Judes leaving for the winter in 3 weeks! (and that is a whole other story)
