Part of life in New England is the winter Season. We New Englanders don’t mind the snow too much during the Christmas Season it is part of the beauty of the Season.

Fresh snow  that falls onto the homes and landscape are so beautiful. On or about the middle of January we New Englanders start to get a little tired of the shorter days, the snow shoveling and for the hazard that ice presents to falling. I know personally that it just takes a slight glaze on the ground and my cane will slip and I could fall. So, I choose to protect myself and stay inside .  I get a little cabin fever now and again. I am just awaiting Spring.

I have often said to my wife that I wish we could get out of dodge and get somewhere warm. I have even thought of moving to a warmer climate. The things that keep me here are these…

My family.

My doctors. Boston is so wonderful.

I love the change of Seasons.

My friends and my church community. I am not going to replicate my life elsewhere at this stage of my life with my limitation.

My life  story is woven and the ties that bind me are here and they are what anchors my heart. I am at home here. Amen. Some people search their whole lives to find what I have here so I am grateful.

So, I will stay put. I will hopefully someday be able to get out of dodge for a week or so during the winter Season to recharge the battery. 🙂

In the meantime……

I heard today on the news that we are now only 40 days to SPRING and day light saving time, longer days.

So , as we sit this weekend Sunday through Monday as another possible foot of snow falls listen to the symphony of Spring and look forward to seeing  the krokus. 🙂
