The weather says it’s going to snow this weekend. Snow. How did that happen?
I feel unprepared for the winter. My tires are all wrong, my firewood is dwindling already, the cupboards are bare and i haven’t even started thinking about the holidays and all the presents i have to buy. The visits i have to commit to, or excuse myself out of.
I have noticed that it is dark out before five in the evening and dark when i wrestle the kids out of bed in the morning. That i am always cold and everyday it’s a little harder to throw myself out on the pavement and go for a run. That i want to throw a bunch of crap in the crockpot and wait for it to be dinner. That soup and warm fires are whispering in my ear.

If the predicted snow isn’t too bad, maybe we can head out for a run this weekend. I’m pretty sure I’ll be spending the weekend at ‘the lake house’.
Yes! That would be fun, i have a 8 miler on saturday!
I hate being cold. I hate wearing layers and I hate snow. I obviously live in the wrong part of America because it will snow here at some point this season. It will probably be a lot of snow and I will probably be stranded in my house for days. I will hate that too.
I don’t hate everything though. I like sunshine. And ice cream. And coffee. But, not cold.
I like coffee and sunshine and cold coffee on hot days!
The weather has just been dreary dreary dreary here and it really gets to me. I haven’t run or gone to TKD in 2 weeks, definitely something wrong.
I know, what to do when there is snow on the ground? Treadmill – ugh.
I’ve been sleepy for two weeks. I’ve actually been thinking that running again might help that.
Yes! and then we could run the Seattle Rock N Roll together!
Coral has a stew in the crockpot right now! yum yum.
