Yes … snow AGAIN!

It will all be gone in a few days (rising temps), but for now, it falls gently and settles peacefully.

The older I get, the more I love snow. As I kid, I enjoyed playing in it, but still counted the days when I could go swimming again. Water still holds a special passion for me, but now … snow just captivates me.  I get cold easily – you know, being thin and all – but the epic stillness snow induces makes me forget about my chilly toes or tingling fingers.

Random fact #1: I always wanted to be an Olympic athlete (still do) – either swimming or short track running. I’ve always found that to be an interesting contrast to my mental/creative side.

Random fact #2: My next book will be a non-fiction memoir about depression, anxiety, medication, love, loss, and yoga (no publisher yet). I’ll be writing it during National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWiMio). Until then, the planning ensues.
