It's A White World

It's snowing here. I got up this morning and it had actually snowed over night and still was. Even now it hasn't completely stopped, although it's more snow-rainy now, but still. It wasn't snowing in Cologne when I got on the train back home but it was definitely snowing when I got off the train in Opladen. I thought this was strange because there's usually not a big difference between Cologne and Leverkusen (it's a fifteen minute train ride, so obviously it's not that far) and it should even be warmer here because of all the industry, but whatever. I like snow.

I didn't like today's snow that much because I had to walk to the train and I had to realize that my shoes are not made for weather like this and I even think one of them has a few tiny holes, so that water finds its way in pretty soon. I couldn't wait to get back home, so I could finally take them off and defrost my feet. Bad shoes, bad, bad shoes.

So, maybe some more about the day before yesterday, I still haven't written about the freezer disappointing us.
It's really not that big of a story, although I would be freaking out, if it had turned out that our freezer was broken, which it is not, so I'm not freaking out. Anyway, Pi noticed that there was some water in the kitchen and I was pretty sure it was coming from the freezer. I was right, if you need to know. For some reason out freezer wasn't so freezing anymore. So we (mainly Pi) decided we needed to defrost both fridge and freezer, which pretty much ruined our plan for a cozy evening on the couch, but whatever. We had water in the kitchen. Near cables. Near electricity. Never good.
So we emptied freezer and fridge, threw a lot of stuff away, because it had been in the freezer for approximately ten years or so. I tend to forget/ignore things in our freezer, because I just can't imagine the best before date could already be over. So we defrosted the whole thing, put the food back in and that was that. Although the freezer was still leaking when we went to bed it wasn't in the morning. So whatever was wrong, it's gone now and hopefully will never come back.
Good thing is, our freezer is empty now. Proof is below.

I'm pretty tired again, I can't help it. So, I'm gonna stop for now and enjoy being home and warm.

But first some wintery (I'm pretty sure that this word doesn't exist, but I really don't care) impressions (taken from our balcony).


Let it snow!


Let it snow some more!
