After two oddly unseasonable days I will admit that I have snow envy. I know that the storms in the Midwest were not fun but I am really ready for a foot of snow. It's been too long since our last one. I miss that stillness that blankets everything with a thick, white layer of fluffy snow. I want to clomp around in it, shovel it, wear my boots and brush my car off. I want to snowshoe, snowboard, cross country ski and make snowballs. I want to walk out the door in the morning and see my breath.
We may get some snow on Monday and I am crossing every finger I have! Though I finally got a wreath for my door, it has not felt like Christmas to me. I know that staring down finals has distracted my, but I was missing the spirit. So today, I stopped at my local Christmas tree farm and bought a balsam wreath. Just walking amongst all those trees it smelled like Christmas.
Someday I will have my own Christmas tree.
