Winter is upon us


I love the summer.

I am really good at living life in the warm weather.
The hotter the better. What’s not to love about 110 degree weather?
All that to say……. I am going to enjoy this winter. Instead of counting down the days till shorts and bathing suits and beaches and…… oh right, I am learning to love the winter too.
So here are reasons that I am going to embrace the winter this year and enjoy it as best I can.


Only in the winter I can ……..


  • Drink hot tea

  • Make gingerbread houses with some of my favorite friends

  • Listen to Christmas music

  • Leave for work when its dark and leave from work when its dark

  • Watch football! Go eagles!!!

  • Swim indoors

  • Be the crankiest person on a hike in upstate with my students in sub-zero weather

  • Wear pretty boots and sweaters

  • Practice my knitting skills
