- You’ve started to forget what some of your neighbors even look like. Either they’ve retreated to warmer climates or they’re just as tired of winter as you are. Seriously, it’s freezing out. You’re convinced they haven’t left their homes since October.
- More than once, you’ve contemplated violently tossing “the towel” that currently occupies your entryway. You know the one: the soggy, salt-encrusted towel meant for wet boots. The one your kids are supposed to use but never do, leaving a messy pile of muddy boots festooned with white salt rings. That towel. It’s enough to drive anyone mad.
- You’ve realized that the whole winter ensemble struggle—gloves, hats, boots, sleds, and snow shovels—only leads to one thing: hot chocolate. Just the thought of that (and everything that goes with it) gives you a headache.
- You’ve given in to letting your kids do wild things just to burn off energy. After they’ve finished climbing the staircase railing, you pop in that old boot camp workout DVD. At this point, it’s not desperation; it’s sheer brilliance. (And hey, at least they’re getting some use!)
- Just the thought of the time slot between 4 PM and 7 PM makes you feel queasy. You’re anxious at the mere idea of spending another hour trapped at home trying to entertain the kids. And don’t even get me started on that ridiculous sand mess. “Mess-less,” they say? Yeah, right.
- You feel pangs of guilt every time you think about the amount of screen time your kids have racked up this winter. What are you supposed to do when you’re stuck indoors with frigid -20 degree wind chills? This inevitably leads you to Pinterest and their overly cheery suggestions for surviving winter with children.
- Thanks, Pinterest, but I have zero interest in building a snowman. I don’t want to create one outside, and I definitely don’t want to construct one in my living room either.
- You’ve unfriended anyone who resides south of Charleston due to their incessant whining. Enough with the “Oh, it’s 57 degrees and SO cold!” status updates. Really? My kids think anything above freezing is “warm” and would likely ask to go swimming if it were 57 degrees.
- You are completely over the germs. Even if you wanted to venture outside, there’s always someone sick in your house. Stomach bugs, fevers, and snotty noses are everywhere. Here’s a thought: if you’re sick, just stay home! We’ve been cooped up for a month now, so much for anyone’s social life.
- You’re officially certifiable, undeniably, and thoroughly going insane.
