Waiting for the Snow

I know I have lots of other posts that need to go up.  There’s the whole holiday recap and many other great ones I’m working on at the moment. But I couldn’t let today go by without posting something about this!

Our region is about to get hit with several inches of snow.  And I LOVE snow storms. I love hearing about them and anticipating their arrival. I love how freakishly over-excited the news casters get. I love it when school closings start popping up on the TV screen throughout the evening. I love the promise of a good solid 3 to 5 inches hitting the area.  I love all of it!  And this time it’s perfectly timed!  I made a huge grocery shopping trip on Saturday and we had a fresh load of firewood delivered. So we are pretty much loaded up and ready to hunker down this evening and watch the snow come down.

For this and many other reasons, I truly do love the winter months that we get around here.  I know by March I’ll be completely over the cold weather, but for now, I’m loving the warm fires in the fire place.  Home-cooked foods done in the oven like meatloaf and lasagna. And the promise of old man winter, paying us a visit J

Happy Snow Days Everyone!
