winter

don't you just love it! winter, that is. i mean who can't get into snow storms, ice storms, and being without power. shows us how spoiled we are, doesn't it. i mean, can you imagine being on the plains, in the woods, or in the mountains during the winters as a pioneer. wow! instead of ice cream you had frozen buffalo legs for snacks. instead of candy or chips for snacks you had mush made from corn that was stored the previous fall. and the doctors say don't use saturated fat to fry your food. how about your steak being fried in lard or saturated fat. i love it. i mean i love winter. it brings out our survival instincts. i mean think about what goes through your mind as you chip away the ice or shovel snow drifts that are 3-6 feet high. just don't say them. kind of helps you see where your mind is, doesn't it. and what about when you want to hop in the car and drive to somewhere just to get out of the house. and those pioneers were excited about getting out after being in their cabin for days if not weeks. man, do we have it good, or what? and who says God hasn't blessed us.
