Snow
Well, it looks as though we will have a very white Christmas this year. We are in the midst of a blizzard. Our entire city has shut down. I am glad that I didn't have to go to work, that was a serious plus, but our kids were in the middle of finals, so I am not sure how that is going to work. Good thing I gave mine last week. I am going to tally my grades and turn them in. Anyway off of the boring stuff. Let's talk about snow.
I have grown up in Denva, Colorada and I still am not used to snow. I hate driving in it and having to function in it. I have always said that it wouldn't be so bad if it weren't cold. I do however understand how people can see the beauty in it. When you are driving from my house and turn out west toward the mountains, on a clear day you can see the beautiful snow caps above Red Rocks. It is an empowering and beautiful experience. I have lived in a warm climate, and have celebrated Christmas' in Hawaii, but there really is nothing like a fresh evergreen tree, a warm fire with hot apple cider and family to watch opening presents. It really can be idealic. Well enough of that. See you all in blogger land.

Counselor,
I will trade you. We are getting dumped on. Mother nature has sat down and shat on Denver for real. It is cold as a mug. I am not even appreciating it anymore, because every time I turn around I am shoveling stupid snow. I will say however that we are no longer in a drought. The water crisis is ova.
Freezing my blackberry off,
