Wonderful Winter Days

Most people dislike the winter season. I love and enjoy the winter. I am not so much crazy about the way negative temperatures we get up here (-40 or so), but I do enjoy some of the other things. Actually this winter has been mild for us. This week (January 15 to now) has been the coldest of all of our winter. Believe it or not, it hasn't even hit -2o here yet. That is shocking to all of us. It has gotten close -19 (HA!). Anyway, the best part about winter is that it is our slowest time of year. I get a break. I don't work, actually. I do very little. I play a lot on the computer and goof off. I can admit this and enjoy it because it only lasts a short time. Once it warms up, we get busy. We are all hoping spring comes early. The fact of the matter is that you can only do little for so long before you get bored. I am about to that point. With my mom laid up, 8 to 6 is the best part of my day because I am at work. No matter what I am doing, I stay here and my dad goes to help her out. Once I am off work, my mom has all kinds of chores for me to do. I don't mind and gladly help them out. I went to the grocery store for them the other day. That was interesting. That was the first time I spent $150 at the grocery store in a long, long time. I am one of those people that doesn't mind going every day or every other day for myself. A list scares me. I go and do whatever I feel like. Depending on whether or not I am going to eat dinner, that dictates going or not to the store. Once there, it is whatever strikes me as to what I buy. I only eat dinner once or twice a week so it isn't a big deal. I eat dinner on days I don't go to the gym. If I ate after my workout, it would be closer to 10 and I go to bed at 10:30. There is no point to that.
