Wish I could box up and send y'all some sunshine!
I'm sure most of us northerners wish that too, Lin!
My SIL (who is more like a sister to me than my sister is) lives in FL and thinks she would like to move up here, but there are just SO many things that I know she would NOT like about it.... the long periods without sunshine during the winter being one of those. Everyone understands that it gets cold in the north, of course, but not the part about so little sunshine. But, there is nothing better than having a beautiful, crystal-clear, sunny day after one of those long periods
We actually had quite a beautiful New Year's Day today, with off-and-on sunshine and a high temp around 30; there have been SO many New Year's that have been just extremely cold and bad weather, blizzards, ice storms, you name it. This weather is awesome, IMO !
