Don't Mess with this Mother

Chapter One: Watching Movies on the Bathroom Floor It is October in the Midwest: wet, cold, windy, grey and raw outside most of the time, that awful transition period between real summer, or Indian Summer if you are lucky that year, and the real beginning of winter when the snow begins to fall. We (myself, my husband, and our 14 month old son) now live in a place that regularly has five feet of snow on the ground most of the winter months, light snows in October are not unheard of, and at least one blizzard is pretty much expected come the month of April. Just a note, our first winter in this “wonderland” ended with four blizzards in a row in the middle of April.
