Here in northwest Iowa, I’ve found this winter to have an established routine in my household, and I’m thinking it might be similar for you. We wake up, our minds start running through all the tasks and appointments for the day, we start working on breakfast or start a pot of coffee, walk over to the window to open the blinds, and…snow. Lots of snow.
