I just had one of those moments.
As my husband and son played out in the snow, I watched from our kitchen window with a giant smile on my face. The 2 dudes were having the best time--snow forts, snow balls, the whole 9 yards. I had a cup of hot chai waiting for the mister when he came inside.
The best part of this whole moment wasn't the father/son bonding, nor was it the chai.
The best part was that I was inside the house, and not in that crap snow.
Snow is rubbish.
Winter is rubbish.
I know...I am from the Midwest! I am a Chicago girl!
Living in California for 4 years ruined me. I am pining for that state right now! As I type, the people in California are HIKING! They are sitting outside at coffee shops!! They are shopping OUTDOORS!! They are wearing open toes shoes!!
I have been reading the latest Joyce Meyer book on positive thinking, and as far as winter is concerned, this book is doing me NO good.
So, to make matters worse, I revisited some photos of our trip to Cali last April.
Bad idea.
Are any of you crazy enough to admit you love winter?? And I'm NOT talking about 1 or 2 days of snow...I mean December through mid March.
If so, WHY??!!
I do not like Winter. Only good thing about it is the cold air does make me want/enjoy red wine more. I am ready for the summer. I want to be somewhere tropical, in a beautiful long flowing dress, perfect tan and beach wavy hair, drinking a delicious cold cocktail. California here I come, which sad to say I have never been before. The hubs and I hope to take a trip to Napa Valley one day when we are not so poor. Hopefully Old Man Winter leaves soon!
ReplyDeleteI hate it. There is nothing fun about it (at least when you're a grown up.) I'm packing my bags and moving to the 'bu. See you ladies there.
