Why I can't wait for winter to be over

There are lots of things I hate about winter. Mostly the snow. Now, being born and raised in Canada, and now living in Winnipeg (also known as WINTERPEG) I’ve come to accept what winter means here.
However, it’s now March. That means it’s been winter for about 5 months and I, like everyone else, am really really ready for winter to be over.
At this point in winter, let me tell you what I hate most about it – the snow packed bumpy sidewalks.
I suffer from plantar fasciitis, so I already have trouble walking in normal shoes. But after five months of walking on uneven, snow-packed and icy sidewalks, my feet are KILLING me. When I see bare concrete, I rejoice. I will go out of my way to walk on solid, flat, even ground.
So please, snow, hurry up and melt so I can enjoy six months or so of reduced pain walking. Especially now that I work downtown.
Pretty please? kthxbai
