When it comes to changing seasons I am pretty much a brat. If it's not summer I don't like it. Fall...ew! Winter...SICK!! I don't like it when it rains, snows, or does anything besides shine with rays of golden sun. Let me break it down for you...
Spring-
*Rainy/wet
*Mostly pleasant
*Flowers blooming
*Things growing
*Influx in bugs!!! :(
Summer-
*Warm
*Glorious out doors activities
*Green grass
*Pleasant smells
*Longer nights
*Clear streets
*Able to travel easily
*Able to hit up the beach
*Roll down the windows/sunroof and feel the breeze in your hair
Fall-
*Rainy
*Leaves falling, making everything look ugly and the ground cluttered *Days start getting shorter
*Cold starts to set in
Winter-
*SNOW (this deserves it's own break down!!!)
*Wet
*Cold
*Necessary to carry ice scraper
*Foggy in the car
*Slippery *Must bundle up to go anywhere(then un-bundle when you get inside!) *Have to wear closed toed shoes
*The winter makes you lazy
*Makes you want to sit inside and drink hot chocolate while watching movies, and it's ok
*Days are short
*Roads are torturous
Alright now that I have hammered all of that out, I think I have experienced a slight change of heart. Do the changing seasons mean a change in heart?
One day as I was walking to my car mid November in the middle of a rain storm I thought to myself..."self, the rain isn't that bad....it's kind of refreshing!" So then I began to appreciate the rain. I just stood there happily walking in the rain. It was exquisite.
The same realization came with winter this year. All of my years of complaining, and suddenly I realized that I LOVE wearing coats, boots, scarfs and gloves. I love sledding, building snow men and snow ball fights! What a wonderful time of year it truly is! Although there are many down sides to the changing seasons I think I can handle it. I think I can get through it and enjoy what life offers until summer comes. :) Jolly winter to you all!
