 I'm not sure how to say this without hurting your feelings, but... well, I'm over you.

I know, I know, you want to hang around a while longer so we can see if we can make it work.  I've heard it all, "Just 8 more weeks!  You'll get to love me!"  and "By July you'll be begging me to come back!"  Yeah, yeah, heard it.  Besides, I've heard from your

I walked out of my house this morning to another three inches on top of what I shoveled last night and marked it as the first I'm-over-winter moment this season.

Yeah, Sophie told me this morning that she couldn't wait for the clocks to " Spring Forward" so that this awful winter would be over. Tried to explain just because the clock moves, doesn't' guarantee winter is over. I remember snow on Mothers Day once. But, I feel the sentiment, why did I ever agree to take a job the makes me drive 50 miles everyday through Western Michigan's snowbelt?!?! And since high school is paying for Alex's college courses, I'm not moving anytime soon. Then comes the Comstock Promise which, with his grades, will pay his way through school. I think I'll have many more winters to suffer the drive. And soon Alex will have his own car for me to worry about him driving in the snow. This parenting thing never gets easier, does it??

Winter has been nasty this year.
