This is what I woke up to today: SNOW. Everything was coated with white... the trees, the grass, the rooftops... even our neighbors' jack-o-lanterns! Now, if you're wondering whether or not I actually like snow, I'll divulge: I do like snow, but only in the month of December. If it only snowed for a couple weeks before Christmas, I'd be one happy lady. As far as I'm concerned, the snow should start to melt the day after Christmas. Why? Well. Snow is wet. And cold. And if there's two things I do not enjoy: it's being wet and cold. Not to mention the fact that after SIX MONTHS of the stuff, it really starts to lose the "oooh, pretty!" factor.
Naturally, I needed a pick-me-up after having my lovely morning RUINED by the sight of all this snow... so what did I decide to do? Well, I started listening to Christmas music, of course! I know I may sound a little like Scrooge, with all this "snow!? Bah humbug!" talk, but trust me: I'm definitely not Scrooge: I absolutely LOVE Christmas! It is my favorite time of year. I love every single thing about it. If it was socially acceptable, I'd listen to Christmas music all year long. {In fact, I've been known to secretly listen to Christmas music sometimes in the middle of summer. Shhh!}
So if it's early enough to snow, it must be early enough to start counting down the days until Christmas, right? Well like it or not, I shall be doing just that from now on.
So, this pretty much wraps up my day so far:
1. Cramps. Ouch!
2. Snow. Boo!
3. Christmas Music. YAY!
Oh, and...
37 days until CHRISTMAS!
