I strongly dislike winter

Today is cold and dropping. Well, maybe 50 with a wind that goes through ya. And I didn't have a coat or gloves. But it just reminded me of how much I strongly dislike winter. This is why I went to grad school in FL. Now I can 'enjoy' four season here in the midwest. blah. And it is getting dark early. Double blah.

I just finished reading Mistborn, which, if I remember correctly, was recommended by Mr. Spit. Loved it! Now I have to wait for book 2 to come in mail....

At least the entry hall where I work at the botanic has a fireplace - can't wait til we can crank that sucker on.

Living in Seattle, I have gotten used it, but it took a long time. And really, come January I will probably post a similiar post.

I find it helpful to cook some homemade stuff, like chili and stuff and have a cracking fire going. Gives me a chance to just embrace winter instead of fighting it. That being said, I am looking into buying one of those natural "happy" lights.

Hang in there hun,

I don't like cold winters either. It does get cold enough in Georgia to require using the heater and bundling up in coats, scarves, and gloves. But every winter there are several times where the weather just warms up for a week then returns to being cold. It's wonderful!

Now there is not a similar occurrence where we get cool weather during summer - nope, it is hot hot hot for months!

I agree! I live in PA and dread winter every year. This past week we had indian summer and it was fantastic but I believe it is over as of today.

If you ever want to get your mind away from 'the real world' just read the Twilight series!
