I would rather be cold.

Here in the Dominican Republic there is no snow.  People are

constantly commenting about being grateful that they are

able to escape the cold winters of North America to enjoy

themselves in the Caribbean.  Well... I say to heck with

that!  I miss the snow.  I miss feeling cold.  I miss making

fires.  I miss building snowmen and wearing big sweaters. 

I miss home.  2 years seems like a long time...  if my

contract were only for 6 months I would probably be glad to

leave in 2 months.  But alas... it is not.  I am committed to stay for 2

years although right now it seems like forever away.  And I

am sick of cooking.  Everyday for 13 people.  Yeah.  Needless

 to say... we eat cereal a lot.  :)
