SNOW

As I sit here this morning looking out my window at the Cardinals, Doves, Finches at my birdfeeder, I suddenly realize that it is snowing:(
I do not like the snow, it is cold, wet, slippery, cloudy, and just plain depressing. Why do some people say "oh how pretty"! I think to myself what? The brown trees, brown grass, no flowers, and what a few select birds that stay here in the winter.

Have I ever liked the snow? I remember some moments of childhood playing in it, but I don't recall ever liking it accept for when I went snowmobiling and sledding. I personally would rather just have Spring, fall and summer. I know that some of you love the winter, I have to ask "doesn't it hurt your wrists when snow sits on the inside of your gloves/mitten?" and how do you keep your toes warm? I never could when I was young and I definitely don't know how to now.

Putting on layers of clothes just makes you sweat more and become colder.
and if you put too many on you end up looking the kid in the movie
"The Christmas Story" pretty funny though with his arms all sticking out.
and then he gets pushed down and can't get up, Love that movie!

During the winter I gain about seven pounds from eating too much then I get all bloaty and become impatient just for a glimpse of the shadowing sun. Yes I know I could exercise and I do, but I have this bum knee with
arthiritis that swells to the size of a Grapefruit turns red and purple and doesn't allow me to even walk sometimes. Must have inheirited it from dad.
So on that note, I should probably move somewhere warm.
I've been up since 3:00 am cuz the boys had to go to work at 4:00 am and now I am going back to bed to dream of sunny & warm days.

Love to all
