Where’s the Snow?

Hey Hey Farmgirl sisters,

How are you all doing?  I’m having one of those uninspired (or perhaps unmotivated?) snaps in life, a writer’s block if you will.  If I recall this is normal for me during this time of the year, during the break between harvest season and celebration season. There’s a stagnancy in the air.  As strange as it sounds, I believe it’s good to be uninspired sometimes. For me it’s a feeling of contentment in that there is nothing that needs to be bettered, accomplished, pursued or created.  I can just go about with the daily rhythms of life and the demands of various responsibilities without daydreaming about what I could be doing or feeling down on myself for not accomplishing all of the things.

Although dinners have been a bit boring. Sorry, family.

Perhaps my last bits of inspiration were spent up making Halloween costumes.  It was a warm Halloween up here!

    I would gladly send you our share of snow here in Pennsylvania..but none here yet either..not in my neck of the woods.

    Our weather in New York has been mild and windy. We had a few snow flakes one day. If you were not at the window at the time, you missed the snow flakes. You girls are beautiful.
    HAPPY THANKSGIVING

    Alex, I miss the snow here in KY too. We had a day of snowing but it didn’t last and it warmed up again enough to melt and then cold temperatures were back but no snow. I am so much happier to have snow if I have to put up with cold temperatures. I have always loved the seasons of Fall and Winter and Spring, but Summer was always to hot for me, except one year in this area it was too cold to go swimming in the summer. Don’t know what happened to make it a cool summer, but it was different and nice I thought. I always like a distinctive 4 seasons a year, a very clear demarcation line between them and the plants and animals that go with each season. I hope you and I finally get our snow; I bought snow boots for the occasion. I love the way it blankets the ground and covers all the bad areas and makes everything look so pretty and clean, white and sparkling and the bare tree limbs with their icy coating blinking in the sunshine makes for such a beautiful Christmacy scene, a perfect Christmas card. Many happy snow days to us both.
