Monday's Musings

Sometimes the tips of my fingers go numb... and it's weird. Like when I'm on my computer a lot in a day, or when they are really really cold.

Also, I'm ready for spring... *gasp*

I don't know if I've ever said that before, especially this early in the year. Usually, I love snow and winter and everything that goes with it. But this year, I miss my shorts and flip flops and the sun.

I've always said that I would never be able to live anywhere where I couldn't ski, but I'm starting to think that was a phase. I think as long as there is something active to do, I'd be OK. I guess I'll have to move to truly learn if that is true. Or maybe it's just that I can't live without a mountain or a beach; I have to have one or the other and then I'll be happy.

In regards to last post:
