Now that the winter weather from Wednesday and Thursday has moved out of the area, the digging out has begun.
Today, for the first time in almost a week the temperature was forecast to be above the freezing mark and I thought I would take a walk outside. Thanks to the snow removal people the sidewalks in the condo development are completely clear, but I forgot that not everything would be. Once I got outside of the development most of the sidewalks still had a deep layer of snow on them. The snow that had been removed from the driving lanes of the streets was piled up on the curbs. That meant that even walking along the edge would not be safe, so I reluctantly headed to the mall.
I guess everyone was feeling the same need to get out than I had. There were more people in the mall than normal, but it was still possible to keep a good social distance. With all the people, the background music was harder to hear than usual, but I caught snippets of a little ABBA, a little Bruno Mars, and some Lady Gaga. And then this.
I have never heard a children's song coming over the loudspeakers of any public place. Judging by the non-reactions of the people around me I don't think anyone else noticed. Were they not paying attention, or did they just not care?

Yikes!
ReplyDeleteI think I would have run out of there as fast as I could.
ReplyDeleteNot a fan?
DeleteGlad it is warming up for you!
ReplyDeleteBaby Shark ... you either love it or hate it. It's the ring tone on my cell phone, which says what side I'm on.
ReplyDeleteHow fun!
DeletePeople are more likely to be attacked by a rhino than a shark; that is because there are no sharks in the jungle.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
That's good to know :-)
DeleteI am ready to take a walk also, but the sidewalks are still piled high. Tomorrow we have the promise of 55 degrees. That should help.
ReplyDeleteI was outside this afternoon, and had to walk on the side of the street. I hope that tomorrow helps, too.
DeleteWell, it's catchy.
ReplyDeleteIt's quite the earworm.
DeleteEven three days of sunshine has not melted us from our drive.
ReplyDeleteIt will happen....eventually.
Deletesurviving minus temperatures sounds so brave of you dear Kathy ,pile of snow moved on side walks can be irritating for regular walkers i agree .
ReplyDeletesong played in mall and shared by you seems noticeable to me :)
blessings!
Our snow is pretty much all gone, and I'm hoping it stays that way.
ReplyDeleteI know that depending on my reason for being in a mall, if I'm there looking for something specific, I rarely stop to smell the roses (or listen to the music, as the case may be).
One big snow a year is more than enough for me.
