Re: I Am So Over This Winter

@CrazyKittyLvr2  I'm where you are! But I absolutely love the 4 seasons and would not be happy anywhere else.

 

We've had some light winters lately, so I guess we were due. Besides, we need the moisture. 

 

I admit, though, this has changed my walks. Still walking, but much slower due to trudging through snow or dodging the icy patches.

Re: I Am So Over This Winter

Am not a winter fan anyway--am in WA state. In Dec we had so much rain for days on end that lead to massive flooding--not usually a thing here, then Jan nothing but dry, sunshine cold/chilly temps and blue sky. Our temps are going back into the 50's again--not good for the snow pack and of course---starting tomorrow--when I will be moving to a new place--rain is predicted!! I know---wht am I complaining about---I know!! gird your loins!!!

Re: I Am So Over This Winter

@joannecha : We live also in west central MI (sorta) and this winter has been a challenge. I find going to a large B&M store for my walks,IF we can get down the driveway and out to the main road. Some days our road to the main road is not plowed by the county so no mail delivery. 

I keep on dancin'

I'd love to hear from those that LOVE WINTER and are living in the deep freeze and snow/ice. How could anyone love this?

Re: I Am So Over This Winter

I love Winter. We just got a lot of snow with -17 wind chill and I'll take that any day over 115 heat index. Everyone is different and I have no problem with the cold. I just don't like the high utility bill. And I'm gonna enjoy every bit of it after the long hot brutal Summer we had. And knowing the heat is coming again in a few months.

I promise not to complain when the temps hit 90 degrees.

Re: I Am So Over This Winter

We got mail delivery yesterday,but late.  It was already dark. We're still digging out.    My school is closed today too.  My husband is sick of digging.  So we hired a guy we know.  He comes today. Still no  trash or recycling.  Hoping they will come tomorrow.  Annoying it's so cold for the rest of the week. Although there is hope after this coming week end. Hoping they ship food to the stores!

Re: I Am So Over This Winter

My daughter just texted me from the cruise ship. I am jealous. Two feet of snow here and 8° this morning. Our condo is just getting plowed out now, steps are not done. I am north of Boston and we are used to snow but last few years we lucked out. Mother Nature is getting even. I promise to love summer this year.

Re: I Am So Over This Winter

We got 17" this past weekend and they are talking about the possibility of another foot or so this Sunday.  A nor'easter is brewing and they are tracking it.  I hate snow. Woman Mad

Re: I Am So Over This Winter

@MaverDaver 

I am on the southern end of WV with 8" of snow and bitter cold temps for the last 4 days.  Right now the sun is bright and my thermometer says it is 22 outside; it is 38 inside my garage.  

I won't say I "love" this weather, but this is normal WV winter weather for a change, and what my husband and I dealt with all of our working years.
