Winter Blues?

I've been slacking in the blog department lately, and I have a really good excuse: I hate January. Like, I really hate it. Why? 1) Inversions are the worst! 2) I hate driving in the snow. 3) It's stinkin' cold! 4) My skin could seriously use some color.

Every year about this time I start to check out real estate in Arizona. I don't mind snow around Christmas time, but come December 26th, I am ready for spring. There's nothing better than watching a tulip come out of the ground. Here's the depressing part: That's still 3 months away! That's 90 days! So, for the next 90 days, I'm stuck in the house, trying to entertain my children. Yay!

On the bright side, at least Jack Bauer is back saving the world from terrorists.

I agree- I like snow a lot, but I'm ready to see some flowers and get some un-pasty skin! Haha! Have a good January (at least try, right?)

Add me to the petition for an earlier spring. Sheesh, what's with this long, cold winter thing that Utah seems obsessed with? Where's my California sunshine? Glad to know I'm not the only one. :)

I feel the same way!! I'm so sick of of the cold, of the snow, and trying to stuff my kids in their carseats with huge winter coats on.

I agree! I hate January too!

I call it seasonal depression and it comes every year...

I try to look on the bright side since I am married to a man who is like a little kid on Christmas when it snows. So, there's only one week of January left. February is only 28 days with Valentine's Day in the middle. And by March we plan a weekend getaway to a warm & sunny place. Oh and we are finally breathing clean air :)
