Just wait, pretty soon old Man Winter will come around and nip your toesies and your nosies, and make them rosy.

I gotta tell you, each winter that comes, makes me want to be exactly where you are now. I can trade places with you for a few weeks and you tell me which you prefer, I will bet that you will be glad to be in your sunny state! It was icy tonight and everyone was slipping and sliding and accidents all over the highway. No thanks, I take warm sunshine over this anyday.
Much peace, love and light,
Amber "V"

I can't help but be a little envious of your "sissy winter" I live in Buffalo, so, mine are rather fierce.
Beautiful writing.
Definitely an excellent example of sensory writing.
I felt as though I was there with you.

Ahhh dear Susan, you should be here with me today then, I just came home from six hours of being Santa at the mall, the roads are snow covered and slippery, the temp is around minus 10 but with wind chill of minus 19 Celsius that is and every second house has there Christmas lights on...I have a fire in the stove and it's perfect snuggle bunny weather.

This is good work. I like the way you spell it out. Better watch that cuddling in the cold, however, the cooling off could give you a cold and... and back in bed! Remember??????? - bill

Well written Susan. Tell you what; suppose we trade houses for a month or three this winter. You want cold and snow? Welcome to The White Mountains of NH. A sissy winter here is anything above 20 degrees F and less than 3 feet of snow. You won't miss the seasonal difference for too long and I'll welcome the warmth. Have a great day and God bless.

It's actually a "sissy winter" here too. I miss the winters in Missouri, now that's a winter to look forward to, The summers are so hot and muggy, but the winters are cold and snowy and invigorating.
