Dear Amy,
You aren’t in Minnesota any more. As you’re well aware, you are in Kansas.
I’m sorry to hear that you are unhappy about the lack of snow there. I wish I could lead you down the yellow brick road to snowy Minnesota, where Christmas music sounds much more holiday-ish than in barren Kansas.
But I possess no special powers to transport you here.
So I will bring the snow to you via the magic of the internet.
Imagine the 25-degree temp, which will dip lower tonight. Imagine snow piles and icy sidewalks and sloppy, slippery roadways.
Now, are you still feeling so melancholy about the 50-degree temperatures and the lack of snow in Kansas?
Happy December, dear Amy, from southern Minnesota!
Love,
Your Other Mom

My husband sheered a bolt off in the snowblower just as he finished clearing the sidewalk Saturday morning.
