it's beginning to look a lot like...

wintertime!

today, i woke up to a very long to do list, that i'm not even sure i'll finish in the next THREE days, much less today... i'm working away at the computer in my room in my PJs, when leigh appeared at my door and whispered "lara... come quick... it's SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!"

you have to understand that leigh grew up in texas and i grew up in southwest tennessee, so while most 20-something year olds are tired of snow and all the cleanup, ice scraping, and crazy driving situations it entails, i've really only lived in places that get snow for the past 8 years, and leigh only for the last 4.

so while most people (including our third housemate colleen, who comes from minnesota) seem to dread days like today, this morning began with an hour of bouncing and oohing and ahhing with my housemate leigh while we admired flurries.

no matter how busy, a day that starts with snow will be wonderful. :)

happy first-NJ-snow-of-the-year if you're close... happy-monday-before-thanksgiving to all!!!! :)
