Let it snow!Let it snow!...and it is snowing this wonderful time of the year.There is a winter storm
in the Northern Virginia/DC area. It's the weekend and what better time to enjoy the snow falling
outside and sipping a warm cup of green tea and listening to Christmas carols.Hopefully,we will be
ploughed out by tomorrow evening and things should be back to normal.And we can go get our milk which is running low.Yesterday evening we were at the local super market to stock up and it was quite an episode with everyone trying to do their best to stock up and the shelves were out of the 2% stock of milk and going low on bread.It's nice that we are only expecting snow for a couple of days or else I could just imagine what the scene might have been.It's also that time of the season when a little snow is welcome but not a lot since it dulls the holiday shoppers and the malls will mostly be deserted this weekend.
And in this economy that is definitely not a good thing for the businesses.Allright..that's my
piece of mind for this snowy weekend on the weather and the good and bad that comes out of it.One more thing on my mind right now is the person of the year selected by TIME magazine and rightfully so..
Mr. Bernanke himself. We would have been in a deeper recession if it was not for the wise decision
making by the 'cure doctor' of economics .He was quite right about throwing more moolah into a sliding
economy to slow down the slide and being a period of weak recovery which will probably go on well into
the next year.I'll take that any day instead of digging ourselves out of a deep depression.Well,all in
all it looks like 2009 wasn't that great a year for the economy ..but hey it's not the end.It's just
that we have to go through the law of averages at some point in time or another and it's that time right now.So,I would like to end on that note with a positive outlook for the next year and lots of good things to come.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays .As I look out ,the snow seems to be getting heavier now...
Enjoy the snow while it's at its best and get cozy with that warm cuppa.
