It's SNOWING!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOO!

I can't believe it... it's SNOWING! SNOOOOOOOOOWING!

I still haven't put my dog agility equipment away either

I HATE winter. I hate the snow, ice, cold, everything about it. I don't have any winter sports to take part in, and I just hate being cold and worrying about slipping on the ice and wrecking my knees even more than they already are. The worst part is, we get winter for nearly 8 months of the year here!!!

How about anyone else? Do you have snow yet? When do you usually get it? Do you enjoy winter, or hate it? If so, why?

I like winter. There's just something about being inside at night, with candles and/or near a fireplace, in cozy pajamas and cuddled in a blanket. Maybe watching a movie. All while it's cold and snowing outside. I also like how it gets dark earlier, and I can wear my sweaters and hoodies. Going out in the evening, when it's cold, and walking into a heated building just gets me.

But I hate BEING cold. Which I am, all winter.

It's not snowing yet here, though.

And what's with the CHRISTMAS crap already appearing in stores?! It's not even Halloween! And we still have to do Thanksgiving. I swear, soon they will start putting out Santas in July.

I wish we got snow for winter.
Three days, if we're lucky - otherwise it's just rain and drizzle and grey and coldness.

You are lucky.
I had a dream that it snowed. You just reminded me of it.

crazykat · 13-10-2009, 11:58 AM

Bitter_Angel · 13-10-2009, 12:45 PM

I hate snow. I hate driving in snow. I drive everywhere!

I HATE snow.

I like the christmas decorations, and a fire going inside and snuggling watching movies, but I hate being cold, I hate cold weather, I hate the snow.

Childerbeast · 13-10-2009, 05:04 PM

Its been snowy for like 3 weeks in Calgary... your lucky? lol

~Grace~ · 13-10-2009, 05:10 PM

I love the snow. We went to Canada last year for the snow (skiing)

Rodolphus · 13-10-2009, 05:10 PM

I love winter.
Purely because it's good for my skin, and it makes me feel better xD

and you have an excuse to spend all your time indoors, snuggled up all warm and stuff ^_^

HAHA! I love it when people say stuff like that. Actually, we had a REALLY hot summer.

Yeah, I heard about Calgary getting snow! I've got a lot of relatives there... perhaps this is karma since I laughed at them for it

This morning I slept in, but managed to be ready on time for work; but the extra time it took me to put a dog crate outside (since we didn't get around to building a second dog house), bring their bucket of water in, thaw it out, fill it up, put it back up and finally put the dogs out made me late

One of many reasons I hate winter...

No Christmas stuff here yet... but don't be fooled, they will bust it out soon, I know it.

Ah man, I wish we had proper winters with proper snow.
Would be awesome.
We are lucky if we get a few days of snow and that it actually settles and is more than a cm deep lol.
I Love snow and proper winters.
I dislike english winters.

Gone. · 13-10-2009, 07:13 PM

Wish we had a decent amount of snow.
But then, I always seem to embarrassingly slip over...

Hate the cold. Love having a cup of tea or hot chocolate in the winter though :)

OutOfTheWoods11 · 13-10-2009, 07:28 PM

Its just cold/hot here depending on whether its an odd or even minute...

I will take pictures for you if you'd like :D Here are some from last year:

If anyone wants to come here and take some of the snow from me this winter, be my guest!

I shovelled a lot of snow in Canada some years back. At a retreat centre in BC.
Snow looks pretty, but
- it never stays pretty long in London.
- I hated shovelling it.
- it plays havoc with London transport!
- it actually makes my mental health symptoms worse [it's complicated].

I don't mind a dusting though.

Was cold here this morning.
My Vista gadget said 3 degrees C. But I think it was exaggerating!

BunnythesAINT · 13-10-2009, 07:41 PM

It was snowing here too! It was ridiculous, halloween hasn't even come yet!
