I'v got the winter blues....

I may have mentioned this in previous posts, but i hate winter. Most winters i can tolerate the snow, and the cold, and i really prayed for a mild winter, but that was just not in Gods plans i guess.

I think we have had something like 500+ inches of snow...that might be a bit of an exaggeration, but its close. The drifts on either side of my driveway are almost taller then me....that just a ton of snow. Then of course there is my lack of coordination to deal with. Me + Ice = pain. I have fallen twice now, neither time was all that graceful of a landing, and i could feel some very bruised body parts for a few days afterwards...is that a sign i am getting old?

So today is the 1st of February, i am trying to stay optimistic and thinking that next month is March and then spring will soon follow...or it had better soon follow!!! Hopefully it wont be long and i can enjoy being outside again, i can go outside without freezing exposed body parts, i can go outside and not get several inches of snow stuck up my pant legs, i can go outside and stay on my feet....well maybe, i am really not that graceful on completely dry ground, but still...Spring can't come soon enough!!
