I know it is a matter of days before I will have to take down the Christmas decorations… I am holding out because I always find it harder to be cheery this time of year once the Christmas decor is gone. Winter here is long, very cold and very snowy with short days and long nights.
HOWEVER this year feels so different since I have been able to get out lots and I may be discovering a really joy in winter sport. Jogging in the winter accomplishes so much more with less distance. Sledding and skating are super fun and I always have company since I can make my kids go with me. I am loving hiking with my dog loving pal and looking forward to finally getting my skis waxed for cross country. I hope to try snowshoeing again and have the boots that can click right into them.
Winter seems less bleak since I don’t feel hindered from GETTING OUT THERE. Here’s to activity and joy in the snow! I hope my optimism keeps up and outlasts this season. Here’s hoping the bone chilling winter wind stays at my back (a tweak on the old Irish blessing).
Merry Winter to you all and may you find warmth of heart no matter the weather:)

so glad you are enjoying winter this year!! We gotta live through it, so might as well enjoy it.
catching up on a long hiatus from blog reading, I also have enjoyed this winter so much more than usual, and was happy to finish packing my christmas decoration away just a few days ago and start looking forward to SPRING!!! 🙂
