Oh, the weather outside is frightful!

I love winter; I love it!  For a time everything looks so white, pristine, clean.  I love the crisp, clean air when it hits the lungs sharply, I love the taste of the snow; I love winter!

Being bundled up in a warm coat, gloves, and hat, marching through the powdery or even wet and sloshy snow - this is my favorite time of year!

But it's much more fun having someone to snuggle with by the fire with a cup of hot coffee, watching the snow plaster itself to all things living and non- not this year, though.

The Pirate Husband left Monday to head back to Sixteen Tons, waiting for him in Mobile, Alabama.  Mobile.  Alabama.  Not a lot going on in Mobile, Alabama...but my fella is there.  And I am missing him here.
