October Snowflakes

So evidently when I thanked Mother Nature yesterday for my mid-day rain shower, she took that to mean I would like more inclement weather.  And by inclement, I mean FREEZING COLD!  What happened to October???  October generally means pleasant fall days.  Days filled with cooler temperatures perfectly suitable for wearing a long sleeved shirt whilst admiring the tapestry of fall colors. October 4th does not mean, I would like to wear a parka while battling windchill temperatures and having SNOW fall on my head! We actually had snow today.  And Sleet.  And more sleet.  It was really cold!  I took my doodle puppies outside and they all turned and looked at me as if to say, "WHAT is THIS?"  All I could do was to shake my head and say, "I don't know dear doodle puppies....I don't know."  October snowflakes falling from the sky......can we please replace that with some beautiful fall leaves instead?  Thank you.
