Snow in March

Two inches of snow on the car. Nothing like as bad as for so many round the country. Funny how I welcome snow in Decenmber or January but resent it in March. Why isn't it 'going out like a lamb' ? Palm Sunday Mass really moving, well sung and the Gospel well read. Going off at the end in silence with no recessional hymn, as Holy Week begins, was particularly effective because the snow had made everything so much quieter outside. Back home with the family to make preparations for next weekend when we will have a houseful. When will we get on to the garden? Planting is going to be so late and I despair of early salads.
