It's a love hate relationship. You know that by now. It's peaceful and quiet and slow, and the soft whiteness is so beautiful. I see that. But that pace is so different. I'm slower, I can get myself to do so much less. It requires more of me - the fire tending, wood gathering, jackets, boots, hats. It's so unfamiliar to me, a girl from sunny Tucson. Here I am, only four hours away, but in a foreign world and figuring it all out from scratch. I always said it was easier to be cold than hot - you can always put on another layer of clothing, but there are only so many you can take off! I don't know...

It's snowing here too. But you knew that already since we always snow together, right? The kiddos have the day off and I hoped to do something outdoors, but there is not enough snow and there is too much cold per snowflake. Bleh. Have fun! Have sun soon!
