Nothing is more fresh to the senses. You have to admit it.
.
I would enjoy the fresh winter air and pine perfume if my nose snot wasn't frozen!
.
and some thing to warm your inwards, a book, and some favorite music does the trick.
.
Lots of Hot Buttered Rum warms my innerds. After a few, I can't see to read. (wink and )
.
Think of the windows all fogged up and the smell of home made bread, ginger bread cookies, or apple pie in the oven
.
And windows frozen shut - so I couldn't air out the house when the oven didn't light. No sweet smells of bread, cookies, or pie -- just the nauseating odor of propane.

..the joys of winter even when it is blowing and drifting outside.
.
Remember that snow blower I've been talking about? I didn't buy it. One of my dogs slipped on the ice and ripped the ACL in her knee ~again~. She needs surgery. So, that blowing and drifting outside ... it's still me and my shovel battling the joys of winter.
.
It's a time that brings back those wonderful memories of your childhood.
.
My childhood memories -- dad did the shoveling and de-icing; gramma baked the cookies and pies; and mom decorated, shopped, and wrapped all gifts. Now, ~I~ do it ALL - and more. Yeah, I liked Christmas way better when I was a kid.
.
I only celebrate Christmas FOR my kids and grandkids. Otherwise, it would be just me, my hubby, and that Hot Buttered Rum - if you get my drift. (double wink)
.
Even my family members in Florida tell me how much they miss Michigan's beautiful winters..
.
Note they live in FLORIDA, and NOT in Michigan? Could it be because .... they hate winter too?
