The wrath of God

It's a bit late this year, but we're just getting battered by a mild storm today and it really makes you feel like the heavens are against you.
We, as Hebridean's, new ones though we are, soon learn how to hunker down and weather the storm, but the noises of your house whistling and shaking, still do strike fear into our hearts and wonder whether terrible things are about to happen.
And yet, on Monday this week, the daffodils were poking through the soil and spring was coming...
I really don't understand it...how things can change as the week goes on...

And thats great though  isn't it it...
