It is nice having access to so much culture. I love the great outdoors, and so I spend a lot of time ensuring we all get our dose of nature, but it's good to remember all the benefits of city life too. I would miss them if I really was in a more rural area, that's for sure ;)Mama Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17489450713167896817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19766666724444291.post-35257250104371553832014-02-24T23:47:03.086-05:002014-02-24T23:47:03.086-05:00I think James actually is using the natural stuff....I think James actually is using the natural stuff. We are generally very much a team when it comes to maintaining the house, but the snow and ice situation is allll him and I have no desire to know what he's up to :) Hope your walkway thaws a bit!Mama Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17489450713167896817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19766666724444291.post-7178074284458378872014-02-24T23:44:57.816-05:002014-02-24T23:44:57.816-05:00Yes I needed that day to get through this winter! ...Yes I needed that day to get through this winter!

They want to go! somewhere! anywhere! now! And I'm perfectly content stoking the fire and getting out board games. You do make me miss living in a city, though with all the talk of museums, bookshops, and restaurants. Enjoy your winter respite!Ruthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17030289955645949644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19766666724444291.post-7979393262751040392014-02-21T21:49:08.525-05:002014-02-21T21:49:08.525-05:00I am a loner too.

Our walkway is the worst it has ever been this winter! And we have never bought salt. I don't like it for the dog's feet and the natural stuff I like sold out before the December ice storm.JoKnowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10282621916141807042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19766666724444291.post-18860110128303550362014-02-21T21:24:02.986-05:002014-02-21T21:24:02.986-05:00Cambridge :) That was a beautiful day!

I have to make a point to schedule plans with friends at least once a week or I'd just fill my life up with 'me'. I am always happy once I'm hanging out though, and hopefully decent enough company that no one knows I had to will myself to socialize :) Your activities sound perfect. It has been a long winter, and I'm not making any bets that we're done. I seem to always come to a place of acceptance by mid-February ;)Mama Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17489450713167896817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19766666724444291.post-26726211456014126372014-02-21T14:30:20.034-05:002014-02-21T14:30:20.034-05:00This winter has been rough!

I think it's great that you find the good in the sometimes-isolating weather. I struggle with it, being an extrovert, but surrounded by little people, I am laughing and building cardboard rocket ships and making complex indulgent desserts for just our family. It can be good to be stuck indoors, too, can't it?Lauren Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07358496490976869347noreply@blogger.com
