If Im not mistaken…

In honour of tomorrow being the first day of winter, I’ve created my own version of the twelve days of Christmas.  It goes like this:  (insert the sound of throat clearing here)

On the Twelfth day of Winter, my true love gave to me,

Twelve neighbours shoveling,

Eleven unploughed side streets,

Ten snowmen sledding,

Nine foot high snow banks,

Eight hours of daylight,

Seven pairs of snowshoes,

Six bags of salt,

Five crocheted scarves,

Four window scrapers,

Three skidoo boots (ha),

Two woolen mittens,

And a jug of windshield washer antifreeze.

Wow, that makes me want to stay inside until Spring time comes!

Happy Winter Solstice!
