Winter SMILE... NOT!!!!

Today. Nov. 1.... I woke up this morning to the ground covered with snow. It actually was snowing during "trick or treat" last night which really seems odd. I mean... when we lived in Cadillac, Mi. having snow on Halloween was pretty common, but in Linden, Mi.... well not so much. If fact... it hasn't happened since we've lived here... now for some 7 years. Growing up in Saginaw, Mi... I don't ever recall snow on Halloween and Saginaw is some 50 miles North. 

So... while my eldest daughter and her husband are all SMILES today because the warm gene didn't stick to them... I'm NOT SMILING so much. It isn't that I don't like snow... really only for Christmas then it can go away... but as I get older I really don'y like the cold. Which is why I'm really NOT SMILING today.

We had the great opportunity to live in Florida for 3-1/2 years... if you count my internship year... then 4-1/2 years... I really acclimated quickly to the warmer climate. I never thought I would like Florida... you know... humidity... bugs... crawly creatures... you get the picture... but I did like it. And now I want to go back. 

So... on this day... a cold, white snow covered day I may have only half a SMILE... but it's still a good day to SMILE nonetheless.

SMILE ON....
