Does anyone else hate going out when its cold and only go to the store like once a day and that's it? Im becoming a recluse but its too cold to go outside. I have to go to the store today though. Anyone else end up staying inside all day?

You betcha! What's worse for me than cold though is constant rain. Not really rain, but rain combined with cold... and those debilitating grey clouds that are so low in the sky that it feels like you can just about reach up and touch 'em. If it's cold out and the sun is shining, that's not so bad, I can dress for that.

Yeah, I'm ready for several days on end of warm sunshine!! Hasn't been as rough here, but I "feel your pain", D.B. I tend to be a recluse, a social recluse (ha!)...."wintering"....

Time change this weekend....and hopefully warmer, brighter days/weeks ahead!!

Darn it Wiggs, you re-kindled visions in my head of the several winters I lived in the Puget Sound... 33 degrees and heavy drizzle... Foggy, wet and cold....And I worked outside..

Today here, its 58 degrees at 10 am and the last patches of ice in my yard are melting away.. Yay! I'm headed outside to shovel some soil.....Should just be getting better from here on out.. I'll cross my fingers for no more ice storms coming in...

im with you on this cold bullshit, it literally wrecked the last couple grows for me and its the only time this fucking gout acts up.

I hate doing anything in the cold, I don't really take my 3yr old out at all except for his MYGYM class which is twice a week, shopping doesn't happen unless I know the house ABSOLUTELY needs it.

cant wait for summer or anything other than winter for that matter. im one of those that attacks ppl that complain about the heat on my FB page. last winter I had a battery of pictures I would post whenever someone complained and then they would stop, lol.

all in all fuck winter completely, seriously thinking about moving away from up north, shit aint worth it anymore, getting too old for this shit man
 
Someone from a cold country, England it was (although there are much colder places than there), said, there's no such thing as cold, there's just people who fail to dress for it.
