The Cold Never Bothered Me Anyway...

Let's start with snow...

Short answer? STRONGLY DISLIKE.

Long Answer... snow is beautiful to watch fall, but clean up sucks hardcore. The last thing I want to do in the winter is shovel and clean off my car. In all but the current apartment I live in, there was some sort of shoveling involved when it snowed - and I was never pleased. 

When I lived in the last apartment, my landlord had a plow guy.. who wasn't super reliable. Having to shovel the walkway to GET to my car, try and get in, start it, shovel around it, clean it off, and move it was so infuriating. I have just never liked snow cleanup. 

The cold? 

Sign me UP. 

To quote everyone’s favorite snowman, “winters a good time to stay in and cuddle!” He’s not wrong, that Olaf. 

I love snuggly blankets, sweaters, boots.. all the cold things. Comfort meals, warm drinks… all great things this time of year! Sure, there are snow sports and such, which I was never really into, but those are actually really fun to watch. I did dabble in ice skating when I was younger, and loved it. I would love to go about that this year. 

I am a sucker (now) for a good Hallmark Christmas movie, where they’re in the snow and living their best lives. But I like to WATCH that, not live it. My parents had the right idea.. moving south to avoid the snow. 

I will be the first to want ice cream or an iced coffee during the winter. I’m an “iced all year round” person - which is rare here in New England. 

All to say… I enjoy winter, but hate snow cleanup.
