    It seems like you can control the weather somehow, Bob. Yep, I remember what you said last week Wednesday that at this time of year you shouldn't get too excited about spring when the weather is warmer or the sun is shining, because there could always be a dip in the temperature or a snowstorm, and here it is 😘. Regarding your question about your hair color in relation to the snow, I would say you are close, but it will definitely take a little while until you are completely white as snow Bob ❤. I guess we'll see at some point. (But a certain amount of camouflage is already in place.) As always, thanks for the lesson (Winter) Bob. Have a nice day, enjoy the snow and stay warm. 🌨🌡🧥

      I believe you, Bob, that would be something and would certainly make a lot of things easier 😎. The fact that you are already answering the comments on Sunday means either that you have a little extra time today (which I would be more than happy about ❤️) or that you have a lot on your to-do list next week, which is less great. Anyways, thank you very much for taking some time to do this, Bob. 👨‍💻🛋😘
      P.S. I hope that your mild cold from Friday has gotten better.

    Hi, Bob, I made up a story to use as many words as possible from your last video lesson and the previous ones. I am your new student and am trying to catch up with all these years.
    I had not got along with my co-worker for a long time. However, today, we had a real fight. I had a lot on my plate in the morning when he came late and demanded to assist him with his duties. When I defied his request, he started to shout at me and call me names. It was too much!
    After 8 hours of being with him in one room, I felt so stressed and angry that I needed to do anything to unwind. It had just started to snow heavily, so I bundled up and left my workplace without a word. I hoped that a brisk walk would help me blow off steam. For a while, I was on the fence about which route to choose. However, when I noticed a sand spreader passing, I followed it. I knew it would clear the road and spread some sand over it. And that it would make walking easier and safer. I started to march, breathing deeply. The cold air filled my nostrils and cooled me down. Soft snowflakes landed gently on my face and soothed me, too.
    Suddenly, the truck turned right into a gravel road. Again, I followed it. I saw a creek covered with ice. Ducks were teeming on the ice. It looked as if they were surprised that they could not plunge into the water. This sight cracked me up. I laughed until tears filled my eyes and trickled down my face. I felt relieved. I put my hand into my pocket and clutched the phone. I decided to dial my colleague’s number. He picked up. We exchanged a few words and said sorry. Thus, we started our relationship afresh.
    I returned home late but happy.

    and ways you use to express ideas about those phrases, as well!👍😃👍
    1/ I often have a stressful day at school, so in the afternoon I often watch Bob's videos, go for a walk and listen to Bob's podcast with headphones to Blow off steam.☁
    2/ When I started mixing this chemical with others to get a new useful chemical that we use in every Chemistry class, my friends often told me: “Don't blow it!”. I didn't blow it up until my friend got out....
    Hey, in the video, you look like the cool Bob the handsome snowman☃
    and also a kind Santa Claus🎅, walking around the wonderland and teaching us!
