Nebraska Winter, Texas Summer

So I compared the weather between my two homes today. That was a mistake. When I woke up this morning in Nebraska, it was 34 degrees and snowing. Oi. When I looked at the weather for Texas, it read 74 degrees and cloudy. Perfect. Then I really got to thinking about it.

I spend 3/4 of my year in Nebraska. Most of it is the part of the year people avoid the midwest and go south. Snow, wind, cold...it's all part of the experience.

Then I go back to Texas for 1/4 of the year: summer. The time when most sane people would move north and try to find a cooler area to spend their summer. Not me.

Now, I understand that this was my choice. I'm not denying that. I'm just asking myself why I didn't pick something the other way around.

Oh yeah, 'cause then I wouldn't have met some of the most amazing people in my life.

Hmm, well, alright. Carry on.
