snow

I really enjoyed January in Nashville this year. It was so beautiful. I think we had at least 1 or 2 60 degree days every week. It gave me so much motivation to exercise and start the year off right. Now that it's February, I'm not quite as excited about the weather or about exercising. It's actually feels like winter now. When I ran on Sunday with Laural, there were little ice balls hitting our faces most of the time. We were just proud that we actually made it through the run.

I do like when it snows though. When I looked out the window Saturday morning, I was very excited to see white. It stopped snowing by noon, so a couple of roommates and I grabbed some sleds and walked to the park at the end of our street. There were lots of kids and parents already enjoying the hills. There were so many different "runs" and we had to try them all. It was so much fun, though I forgot how tiring the walk back up the hill for another ride can be. It really wore us out, but it was so worth it! We didn't go out the rest of the day. It felt so nice to just stay home with the roommates and watch movies. The snow gave me a good reason to stay in most of the weekend and just chill. It think that is exactly what i needed.
