“I’m not opening up!” is probably what the snow-covered flowers in my front garden were saying yesterday morning.

If you would like to participate in this prompt, feel free to use the “One-Liner Wednesday” title in your post, and if you do, you can ping back here to help your blog get more exposure. To execute a pingback, just copy the URL in the address bar on this post, and paste it somewhere in the body of your post. Your link will show up in the comments below. Please ensure that the One-Liner Wednesday you’re pinging back to is this week’s! Otherwise, no one will likely see it but me.
NOTE: Pingbacks only work from WordPress sites. If you’re self-hosted or are participating from another host, please leave a link to your post in the comments below.
As with Stream of Consciousness Saturday (SoCS), if you see a pingback from someone else in my comment section, click and have a read. It’s bound to be short and sweet.
Unlike SoCS, this is not a prompt so there’s no need to stick to the same “theme.”
The rules that I’ve made for myself (but don’t always follow) for “One-Liner Wednesday” are:
1. Make it one sentence.
2. Try to make it either funny or inspirational.
3. Use our unique tag #1linerWeds.
4. Add our lovely badge to your post for extra exposure!
5. Have fun!

Those unexpected cold snaps after our tulips make an appearance always make me feel a bit sad for the poor flowers stuck in the cold.

I think your flowers have the right idea, Linda. I almost pulled the covers over my head yesterday when it started snowing here. No accumulation, but not what I wanted to see.

We got about an inch Tuesday morning, but it was mostly gone by the time the sun went down. And yeah, I had a hard time getting up yesterday morning too. Bleh.

Oh, they are. The snow is gone for now—no guarantee it won’t come back, though. 😛
