I can't stand it anymore!!! I always always hate winter and this year it is the worst ever!!! I live in Minnesota and the weather here is absolutely ridiculous!! How are the rest of you ladies dealing? My combo skin is flipping out, my hair is bad and I just feel like an overall hot mess. I think it is time for me to think about moving!

I am in New Jersey and it is the worst ever. Not as bad as the north of our country but still awful. Hate, hate winter!!!! Always did. So depressing. I would love to move but family situation is not allowing.

I hate winter also Swimgirl !!!!!

I NEVER liked it & this one is testing all us winter haters LOL

I live in western NY & it has been just about non stop since November, enough already, a foot of snow on the ground & it just keeps snowing an inch or 3 here or there, big fluffy flakes

I hate dressing for this brutal cold, my house is cold inside, not great windows

I would move in a second if hubby's job was not here

my hair & skin are ok....we have a humidifier on the furnace which helps & I got some Creme De La Mar on e-bay & that has helped with the face

No choice but have to deal with it, such a PAIN IN THE A....

I hear you. I can't stand the cold, dark, icy mess. And I want to kick people in the neck who say they love the change of seasons or the snow.

I don't mind winter. I just hate that four-letter word: S-N-O-W!!! Here in the Chicago suburbs we've gotten over 70 inches so far! I'm tired of shoveling, looking at everything white, and watching out for ice.

I'm doing nicely. December was cold but since the first of January it has been unseasonably warm. Yesterday was 70, should be in high 40's. No moisture since December 21st. Trees and shrubs are leafing out 'way too early. Time to get out and start yard clean-up.

Man I sympathize with you gals stuck in that mess, I am lucky to be south now but All the stuff is fresh in my mind.... like the house never feeling warm enough, the battle with dry air, bad roads, being stuck stranded and house bound, cabin fever , the dreary dark ICK of it all.....I finally said that's it, I'm done,can't stand it any more. ..........I sure hope it lets up soon for you.

I'm in the midwest and yes, this has been some winter. I don't really mind it, it is what it is....winter so you expect it to snow, expect you'll be shoveling or using your blower, expect it to be cold, expect your car to look like c*rap from road salt, expect slushy roads once it begins to warm up. I know nothing else since I've never lived anywhere but in this region. I guess growing up in Chicago has prepared me. I will say, though, we were kind of due for this, we haven't had a super bad winter in many years. So you do what you need to do....make sure you have enough food in the house, bundle up when you go outside, make sure your gas tank is always full, give yourself plenty of extra travel time if you need to go out in it, and don't follow too closely behind the car in front of you. We're under another winter weather advisory today, another 6" of new snow is expected.
