Hello, hello!
It's time to post some phrasal verbs. At this point you may be thinking that these two phrasal verbs have something to do with weather, but I have to disappoint you... These two actually have nothing to do with weather. What a surprise!

Let us start with the phrasal verb snow under. When you are snowed under, it means that you have too much of something to deal with. There are times when I feel snowed under, especially during exam periods when I don't have time for my hobbies or anything else. But when it's over I always make up for it by reading books, visiting friends, going to theatre, etc.
This Weeping Angel from Doctor Who isn't snowed under, but it surely is under the snow. But don't feel sorry for him, he is a dangerous creature. When you see one of those, just don't blink! Blink, and you're dead!
As for the second phrasal verb, wind down, it has at least three meanings. All of them are more or less same with slight difference. First, it can mean to end or finish something gradually. The second meaning is very similar - to gradually reduce work before stopping completely. The last one is my favourite - to relax after a period of excitement or worry.
How are you guys? Are you snowed under? If yes, please make sure that this weekend you will wind down a little bit. Let us know in the comments below!
