Falling Snow

As I sit looking out the window I see a Winter Wonderland. The fresh-falling snow gleams over the snow already on my dog's obstacle course. Inside the lights on the tree glow highlighting the stockings hung over the fireplace with a fire burning below. I can smell all the treats baking in the kitchen and hear the carols being sung by............ then I remember it is April 9th and not December 25th and that it has been snowing near non-stop since last October and I'm really sick and tired of all the snow, mud, cold and ice.
