Snow

Snow is one of my least favorite things!  There is nothing worse than looking out my window first thing in the morning and seeing snow falling from the sky. I always love the very first snow fall of the season though.  It looks so pretty covering the street, lawns, and houses.  It's the shoveling, the brushing off of cars, and driving in it that irritates me.  Take today for instance: shoveling today was an extremely unpleasant task.  It was extremely cold and the snow kept hitting my face every millisecond.  It wasn't even sunny out but I had to wear my sunglasses just to keep the snow out of my eyes.  I must have looked ridiculous!!  I also always feel badly for my dogs.  They are little so when it snows an enormous amount, they cannot even walk in it, which makes taking them for their numerous walks throughout the day less than enjoyable.  These are the types of days that I long to move to Myrtle Beach.  The temperature here is snowy and 32 degrees, while Myrtle Beach is 52.  That sounds so wonderful right now.  Being able to go outside in a light jacket, not having to defrost my car, or worry that I'm going to skid on ice on my way to work later.  What a marvelous thought.  I have at least another two years before this can be possible though, so for now, it is only a dream.
