Well yesturday was the first snowfall that looks like it is staying. I guess that winter has fallen upon the north. Here comes the perpetual -10F to -20F days. Things won't get soo bad until January and Febuary though. Those months are the coldest. The cold and the snow also signals the holiday season. It is strange I don't really feel the seasons or the approaching holidays like I used to. I seem to only notice the change or the feelings when it begins to get cold or the holiday arrives. Then the feeling is gone. Then I don't remember until the next year. I remember when I would anticipate Halloween, Christmas ect. I suppose that is what happens when you grow up. I find that a little sad though. The anticipation created a happiness, the thought of new things and seeing family and friends was joyful. I do not get that until the actual day now. And even then it is not that great. I suppose the feeling wears off. I suppose when I can now get what I want when I want and I can talk to family whenever I don't have to wait until Christmas. I still wish though that I the feeling could come back. I was fun to wish and anticipate what would be under the tree.
