Can I Just Say...IT IS FREEZING

Living in Alabama is really an experience wether you are like me and you've lived here all of your life or you're someone who has moved here. If you don't already know, the weather in Alabama is crazy, illogical and sometimes unpredictable. Monday and Tuesday of this week were nice and decently warm. However the last three days have been FREEZING. We go from 70 degrees one day to 20 the next. Somewhere in Alabama is supposed to get SNOW this weekend!!! S-N-O-W! THE WHITE STUFF THAT FALLS FROM THE SKY AND, sometimes, STICKS TO THE GROUND! Mom made a good point the other day, she said that she can't remember there ever being snow in November. TECHNICALLY we are still in the middle of Fall. THIS ISN'T WINTER. My kids at the day care are starting to get sick, kids are getting fevers and not "feeling good" through the afternoon and then another kid, and another and another and yes... another. It's like a never ending cycle of sickness and the only thing that breaks it is Summer. 

Now let me just say, I generally like Winter weather. However, as previously stated in posts before this one, I can not stand the sickness that comes with Winter. Whatever the kids get, I usually get it. Not to mention, I feel like the cycle of sickness is going to start off ten times worse because it was such a sudden and drastic change in temperatures. 

Some of you aren't going to like what I am about to say but it's okay, just take deep breaths and realize that I am not a weather person and there is still milk and bread in the stores.... well... as far as I am aware that is. I want it to snow. DON'T FREAK OUT!!! I don't want it to snow right now. Let's get past Thanksgiving before we actually start the snowy weather, but I do want snow. It would be nice to have snow right around Christmas:) Are you still breathing? You just un-followed my blog didn't you... it's okay:| Go ahead... go get your milk and bread, I'll wait....

You back? I knew you would be. Now I would like to make a suggestion. If it does snow, you should take the opportunity that you are stuck inside, assuming that it is the kind of snow that prevents travel, to really dig deep into God's Word with your family or by yourself. Don't get me wrong you should be doing that now and every day, but during the time that you would normally be heading to work or somewhere else, you should turn off everything that distracts and dig deep into the Word. Spend some time with Jesus, and even put on some music and worship Him in song:) Yes... IT IS FREEZING, but let's make the most of the freezing weather when ever we get the chance. You never know, God may make it snow to give you rest and to get your undivided attention on Him instead of the things of the world. Just remember, if it does snow, you can't control the weather so stop trying to think of how if it goes away soon you can still get to work. Thank God for the break, and honor Him. 

Am I thinking too far ahead... okay well, have an amazing day=P May the Lord bless you richly! STAY WARM!! =) Frost bite is real people!!!!!! ;)

Till next time....
