Hey there, to my various visitors from Georgia! (I have been watching the feed, it looks like I have a cult down there.)
I'm sorry I haven't been up to blogging much lately. I am truly busy, what with nannying twins, giving art lessons, teaching tumbling, and swing dance troupe practices and swing socials. Not to mention time with friends. Yup, I wasn't kidding! I'm so glad that I'm not in school on top of all of that. =]
So blogging easily takes the back burner, it's more of a hobby and a way to share my thoughts when I feel inspired.
Guess what? I am feeling inspired this morning.
It was cold this morning, and this is just the beginning. The next few days, frost is expected. Oi...
I hate winter. I really do. And right behind that is fall (despite my name, haha) because that means winter is coming. Why do I hate winter?? Because. It is COLD. I can't stand the cold. I would happily take a 100 degree day over a 0 degree day, anytime. Plus, I hate snow driving. I spun out three times last year, and I was scared to death every single time. If I never had to snow drive ever again, I would be one happy girl.
Despite hating winter, and the cold, there really are things I love about this season - besides the holidays, and holiday foods. Those are a given. =)
"I simply remember my favorite things, and then I don't feel so bad." And my favorite things all have something to do with staying warm. (Surprise, surprise.)
- Wearing hoodies, lounge pants and heavy socks
- The comforting sound of the heater humming
- Watching the curtains dancing above the vent
- Taking showers that are much too hot
- Flannel sheets, and heavy blankets tucked under my chin
- Keeping the heat in the car up full blast
- Hot cocoa, hot tea, and more coffee
- Wearing my gloves and scarves
- (I'd say sitting in front of the fireplace, if we actually used it.)
What do you like or dislike about winter?
You have such a positive attitude! I will try to remember this up in Wisconsin (I'm from Hawaii)!
