I can’t believe it! My weatherman and my calendar agree, here in Southwestern Ontario, Canada – heavy on the Southwestern – it is supposed to be Spring. But this morning I was greeted by snow!

Yes, I know it’s only April and it’s not unusual for us to get snow at this time of year, but today the reappearance of snow hit me – like a slap in the face, a kick in the butt, like being shoved down when you’re trying to get up out of the doldrums of winter hanging on and wanting spring to take over.

After having several days of double-digit weather recently this new snow is a drag. Maybe it’s menopause, but I’m sick of the cold and the snow. I’m cranky and tired and headachy. And, I just want to crawl back into bed, snuggle down and wait until spring really is here.

Except for those darn hot flashes!

Hmm, I guess that’s one good thing about the cold weather dragging on. When a hot flash takes over all I have to do is step out on my porch to get some relief.

Let’s journey together.
