You win this time, Mother Nature!

Every year I'm surprised when I find that it's time for the calendar to turn from February to March. You'd think I'd be used to it by now, but something about going from the 28th (sometimes 29th) to the 1st is just weird. But, I thought, if it's March now, that means spring is coming and that this seemingly endless cold will end. I used to love ( Read more... )

LOL, we got a shade less than 2" of lake effect snow yesterday and I don't even care because I know it's going to melt later in the week. The knowledge that days are longer and sun is higher in the sky is good enough for me.

But you have it all wrong: see, cold in winter is a given. It will always be extremely cold in winter, that's just the way it is. What really screws things up is the stupid snow getting in everyone's way and making parking a chore. So I'd take an entire winter of temperatures below twenty if it didn't snow more that a few inches, tops. Easy. A winter that's cold and has no snow sounds just fine to me.
