SNOW! Uck.
Each little flake is one more stone in my shoe. Sure, it's pretty at Christmas. And it's fun for sledding. So, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow from Dec. 20 - Jan 15. Then let it go, let it go, let it go! Or if it has to stay, let it snow only on hills and in wooded areas for intrepid snow-sport people. Ah, freedom from snow plows, shovels, and boots. No more coats, mittens and hoods. No sliding around corners hoping to avoid the car waiting to pull into the intersection. No more slush on the windows as truck/SUV drivers blast past you.

Bring on spring, even the dreary, rainy days. Increase the temperature by single degrees or whole seasons' worth at a time. Thunderstorms, blustery winds, sunshine! Yes, yes, YES! Open the windows, even if it's still chilly. Bring fresh air into every corner. Let summer reign!

LOL! Let it snow, let it go! I couldn't agree more! Where's that blasted groundhog???

Oh Sue I couldn't agree with you more! The only good thing about winter is the heavy clothes that cover (I hope) the fact that I love food. Oh, and the occasional snow day of course. I love the fall the best.

See you around the corner!
