Mama she's crazy......

I have lived in this province all my life.
I don't get bent all outta shape when the big snow storm hits, or we get rain .....getting them both within hours of each other tends to slow one down....but, not get myself into knots over....
we have seen it before and likely will see it again, sooner rather than later. Driving means being careful and you KNOW that it will take more time to get to work/appointments and such. That all being said and so that I do acknowledge the fact that there are some "down" sides to the weather conditions we are experiencing!!

I love it.

I love the fluffy, clogged streets. I love the sparkle of the snow, I love the fresh wintery smell of the air. I love the quietness of the street as the snow buffers all noise. I love the red noses and "apple-cheeks" of people walking down the street. I love the fact that we HAVE to slow down!!
I love watching neighbors helping neighbors shovel their walks, or help them get unstuck from their driveway. I love the picturesque landscape of the snow hanging off the trees. I love having hot chocolate and a good book waiting for me when I settle in for the evening.

Yeah, there are some difficulties that come with snow, I do agree.....but the beauty of the season for me really and truly out weighs all that other by tons.

I love it.

maybe I'm crazy......or as my friend told me today at lunch....an eternal optimist. Whatever the case maybe......

I still love the snow.
