We are in the second week of winter now. I will forget about the countdown sometimes. Other times I will do the math. It is a game for me. We are in for some frigid temperatures. Single teens. I am wondering whether we will face any big snow storms. We will see. We are in the middle of winter. There is no doubt about it now. My periodic countdown is a way I have of marking the end of that season and awaiting spring. As you can tell I am not too thrilled with the cold weather. I just bear it and make sure I am properly dressed for the day.

I froze. I quickly dashed out for an errand and was glad to be back in my heated house. Twenty-nine degrees outside. Yes, winter has come. Not officially for another three weeks. The cold is here to stay. Once winter comes I will start a countdown to spring. Anything to relieve the cold. I know before I know it winter will pass and spring is next. It is all an illusion. The cold weather is here to stay. It is going to be a long winter.
