Snow has got to go!

I used to be a great lover of snow seeing how I loved to downhill ski. As a kid I would count down until I could hit the slopes and go skiing. My love hate relationship with snow started when I became a young adult with a job and had to stand in a 4 foot snow bank at 6:30am waiting for the public transportation to get me to work. I hated stepping into slushy snow and being cold even when I was all bundled up. I do love a cup of Hot Chocolate so coming home from a hard day of work and having the first of many cups of Hot Chocolate and then looking out the window to a beautiful view of newly powered snow was nice to look at. Snow when it's a inconvenience sucks but when you are warm with a cup of coco also by a nice fire even better. As I got older my relationship with snow started turning to a dislike and the Hot Chocolate wasn't turning my mind how wonderful the winter is. I started looking at snow as some bothersome hindrance in my life so when I took the big plunge to move from Canada to the USA in an area which only sees snow in the Mountains I was like finely no snow unless I wanted to go to it. Well right now we have snow and as I'm writing this it's snowing outside. Global Warming my ass! Our winters are about rain and lots of rain but snow...come on!!!! I thought I escaped the snow and I thought I moved away from the snow. Sure it's nice and beautiful all this white flaky snow coming down but it's a week left for Christmas and I haven't finished everything yet. I have to get out and finish all that's left of my Christmas Shopping. I have a life and this cold snow is not what I asked for. Now I'm stuck in the house because I don't have the heart to go out in this cold getting flash backs from my horrendous experience standing in the freezing cold waiting for a bus in my early 20's. Then again I get anxiety when things are not done so I'll have to bundle up and get out there suffering the cold and get things done. I'm not looking forward to it and now with children my love for snow will come back...who knows really! I may come back next week raving what a beautiful white Christmas we had... things always change and so does peoples views on such matters. So hating snow to the love of snow.... I guess I'll wait and see. Take care, Peace!!
