I had to make a hard decision recently. I had to break up with winter. Actually, I suppose it was a pretty easy decision. Some relationships are just not meant to last, and for me and winter, time had run out. Back in November, we were all flirty and cuddly. Then we spent the holidays together (things got serious pretty fast). But by late January, the honeymoon phase was over. All those things I used to find so cute about winter started getting annoying. The cold wasn’t brisk anymore. The snow started looking dingy. I thought maybe we could rekindle the romance over Valentine’s Day, but it didn’t happen.
All I wanted was a bouquet of a dozen roses. Roses that were grown on a rose bush. A rose bush that was able to grow and bloom because it’s actually spring. In hindsight, I can see how this request might have offended winter, which is probably why it backfired. Now winter has totally frozen me out. (Get it?)
I’m not in to drama queens, so I had to call it quits. For real this time. The problem is, winter’s pretty clingy, so it’s probably going to keep begging me to take it back for a few more weeks. Ugh. RELATIONSHIPS. Right?

Sarah – you honestly make me laugh out loud. I think I’m having the exact same relationship with Canadian Winter…. and winter just keeps coming back, year after year – doesn’t get it! I’m not interested.
Lol.
Also – your shoes are fantastic.
Tea.

Sarah—Have you ever tried stand up comedy? Because I think you were made for it! The important thing is how great you look when you run into “winter” again! And you do look great in this outfit! Jodie

PS…I covet those shoes!!
Uggh, I’m definitely breaking up with winter. I love the light layers here – they make me long for spring!
Totally agree–when is winter just going to get the hint and leave?
Love those camo flats!
You are such a great writer. If that law thing doesn’t work out…
