Dear Old Man Winter:

Can we have our sidewalks back please? We haven't seen them since early December. Somebody is going to get run over walking in the street to get around the snowbanks, namely me.

Love,
Brigid

Growing up in south-central NC, I used to ~love~ snow. We saw any appreciable amount of it so infrequently that it was an absolute treat.

I've lived in north-central WV for 12 years now, and this has been the worst winter in a decade...
I just cringe and sigh exasperatedly when i see it snowing ~again~, because we've had a combined 30" of snow in the last 6 weeks, and the kids have had maybe 10 school days in that time period.
