Dear Winter,
Although it hurts me to do this, I have to tell you that it's over between us. This relationship has gone on for too long now and I just don't feel the same way about you that I used to. Don't be sad, we had fun. Remember how it started off so romantically in December -- the long walks in the snow, the snowball fights, the ice skating, the tobogganing, the nights by the fireplace? I will always treasure the memories, but the love is gone, and I can't get it back.
It's stale now -- always the same thing over and over again: blizzard, shovelling, blizzard, shovelling. It's March, for Christ's sake, and we're still stuck in the same old pattern: blizzard, shovelling, blizzard, shovelling. I can't take it any more. Neither of us is happy. I want to start seeing other people. Like Spring, and Summer.
It's not you, it's me. I hope we can still be friends.
Alison
Are those your Christmas lights?
ReplyDeleteLOL! You crack me up Alison. I too am SOOO done with Winter!
ReplyDeleteAlissa - yep, those are my Christmas lights. They went up near the end of November and they're not coming down until the snow's gone and I can climb up a ladder in temperatures above zero. The way things are going, that should be mid-July.
ReplyDeleteHere's hoping that the ice pellets and freezing rain I got this morning somehow magically missed you.....
ReplyDeleteI thought winters around here sucked. I would totally hate to have that much snow all the time. Even though we don't have all the ice and snow, I'm done with winter too.
ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike LOL! The snow's pretty until you have to do something with it in order to go anywhere! My affair with it is ove and don with too :)
ReplyDeleteI'm breaking up with winter too! (and our Christmas lights are still up as well...)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laugh. I am over it too.....I was only the person at work today. Amateurs.
ReplyDeletesoooooooooooo over!
ReplyDeleteDon't feel bad, he's been two-timing you all along!
ReplyDeleteYou had to do it, Alison. He's really been coming on too strong, crowding you, trying to keep you housebound, freezing out your friends and family. Be careful, though. He may not take it well. I've heard a rumour he's planning some sort of revenge for Saturday.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Great post. I hope you don't mind sharing Spring with me...
ReplyDeleteCan you sign my name to that too?
ReplyDeleteMe too. And like -- I don't mind winter. I don't mind the cold and the snow. But this...this is enough.
ReplyDeleteYes, do be careful Alison. I think he's a stalker.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is truly time to divorce Winter. Good luck with that.
ReplyDeleteLOL!!! Too funny...and sooo true..I'm sick of it!
ReplyDeleteSending sunshine vibes your way!
ReplyDeleteyou kill me. I can't stop laughing ... it is so true. The love affair has ended.
