The Sting of Winter


Summer is long gone, a blanket of snow now covers the ground where my garden grew. The sting of winter slaps my face and takes my breath away when I step outside. Life is crazy busy with the kids and all the driving..driving...driving! I feel like I spend all winter counting down the days until summer returns. I am a California girl and proud of it, I love the sun and the heat. I sometimes wonder how Bill and I ended up living in the snow when we both dread it. We have been married 17 years now and have spent every one of those years living where it snows. I went to lunch with friends on Saturday and confessed that I HATE The Snow! They were all so shocked by my words, I laughed! I am not afraid to say it! It just isn't all that it's cracked up to be. So I decided this morning I would wake up and have a new outlook on the snow, make friends with it than maybe I would enjoy winter! Well lets just say I tried..I still HATE it and want to move to the beach! :)
