I can’t sleep. 🙃 It’s not unusual for it to snow in March here, so we try to keep some of the lights up for a little while longer…

Ody doesn’t seem to mind, especially since I’m dragging him outside in the middle of the night with my insomnia a lot. 😅

At least it’s not totally dark, but it’s still COLD!

Is it still snowing where you are? ❄️
