We had a winter blast in our neck of the woods this past week. In fact, three days later, there are still random patches of snow on the ground where the sun doesn't shine. I've said it before and I'll say it again, the cold is one thing I do not miss about my beloved home. I think the snow is pretty as it's falling and when it has completely covered the ground- stumps and all, it truly is a sight to behold. After that, though, I'm done with it. Bring on the sunshine and flip flops, please.

Maybe it's this cold weather that has me down. I certainly do function better when I can sit on my front porch with the sun streaming down. The forecast shows nothing but clouds for the next few days. Football is practically over. I've not started any good books lately, and now I've got papers to write. Our family rarely sits at the table together anymore.
I'm in desperate need of a visit home.
Even so,
The sun will shine. March Madness is coming.
I have a ton of unread books. Papers I can handle.
Dinner at the table I can demand.
Spring Break is the perfect opportunity to drive.
We just gotta make it through February.

I think the cold weather has ALL of us down. There's nothing more soothing than warm sunshine. Winter has advantages, however - there's plenty of time to read.
I like your childhood sled. And I can identify with being stressed over cat food and litter. I sometimes think I buy more cat food than people food....
I don't mind some cold, as long as the sky is blue. To a wimpy Washingtonian like me though, cold is in the 30s. I've been hating our foggy gray days which make me feel closed in under an oppressive blanket. But the days are getting lighter which means spring is coming, right? Hang in there!
LOVE the sled. Perfect for snowy weather. Remembering our fur babies necessities is stressful, indeed. Sunshine and warmer temps would be nice year round. Hope you get home soon. March can't come soon enough.
