bearshortyFirst snow! Well, it was more flurries but still – snow! I do love snow. I have fond memories of playing in the snow as a child and sledding and cross country skiing. My childhood winters were very snowy in a country that was equipped to deal with snow, so snow was never a horrible tragedy like it seems to be here. There weren’t too many cars at the time too. So first snow always makes me happy.
Now that it has actually gotten cold, I want to go outside for walks more. This is weird. I think it is because I do love the crispy air and also because the Christmas lights are up. So it all feels festive. I went around and took some pictures of Christmas lights tonight. During my first Christmas season, I was thirteen and we lived in Brooklyn. And December and holiday decorations took us by such surprise. We lived in this Italian neighborhood that was heavily decorated and I remember when Papa and I were walking around just admiring all the lights. It was amazing to us that nobody was stealing them!
Second season of “Men of Certain Age” premiered tonight. I started watching it last year because of Scott Bakula but ended up watching it because it was so much fun to watch. I really like the friendship of the three main characters and how the people feel like real people with real problems that don’t need Hollywood soap opera plots. And they talk like real people too. So I am looking forward to this second season.
