Snow is Falling

Well, it’s here! Winter held off as long as it could and the snow has started to fall! It had to come eventually; we do live in Chicago after all! But instead of cringing at the sight of the grass disappearing underneath a fluffy white blanket, let’s try and look at the hot chocolate mug as half full.

This is a perfect opportunity for you to add all those new accessories into your wardrobe. Didn’t we all either buy ourselves or receive a new scarf or mittens that we were just a little disappointed we couldn’t use right away? Deep down? I know we all get chills but using a thick scarf in 56 degree weather is just a little much. We also get the opportunity to actually experience winter. We all knew what we were getting into when we set up house in the Midwest. The snow will also help out our farmers with their crops in the spring!

We also have a chance to justify some much needed rest and relaxation. As I said in our last blog, we should all make resolutions to take time for ourselves. Let’s make this the resolution that sticks. Turn this snow into a positive chance. Instead of going out to see a movie, stay in and rent one. Instead of getting a spray tan (it’s snowing now you’re not fooling anyone), come in for a facial to help protect your skin against the cold and wind.

The most important thing is to be careful out there and try not to get too stressed at the little flakes flying at our windshield.
