WINTER WINTER WINTER

:popcorn: :hi:

[QMPMom]

1. Winter.

Hate it, hate it, hate it.

[fudge stripe cookays]

2. Used to be summer in Texas.

In about a month or two, that will be changing to winter in Wisconsin.

:cold:

[yellowdogintexas]

44. lol will you pay in body aches what you gained in getting rid of the heat?

not knowing how cold vs heat affects your condition it is hard for me to fathom. Cold bothers my fibro much more than heat although I hate being HOT.


but you can always put on more clothes, and get electric foot warmers, etc when it is cold. There are limits to what you can do in the heat


Although all things considered, this summer has been pretty nice.

unlike last summer


I have been sick all week with a nasty cold, possibly mild flu, ran into me like a train Saturday night and laid me low.

yuck.

and how are you!

[fudge stripe cookays]

46. Aw!

Sorry you're not feeling well, sweetie! :hug:

I've been great! Got to Madison last weekend for research and already knocked down 2 stubborn brick walls! So it was totally worth it! Will probably head to the Milwaukee library this weekend to try to figure out what happened to two other folks I need to find (possibly 4).

The cool weather has been SO great for my health. I had turned into such a slug down there. Never got off the couch because I couldn't go outside. I've been walking the dog 3 times a day, AND eating better stuff from the organic co-op. I've already lost 8 pounds! :D

I've stocked up on some nice sweaters with my Coldwater Creek and J. Jill coupons. Will head to Eddie Bauer with my next paycheck. My friend at work has recommended the "Toasty Toes" for work (http://cgi.ebay.com/Toasty-Toes-Portable-Foot-and-Leg-Warmer-by-Indus-Tool_W0QQitemZ190159382800QQihZ009QQcategoryZ115963QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem). Think I'll get one of those! And an electric blanket for the bed, space heater for the bathroom, etc.

I'm doing great. Just lonesome, although I've hung with some of the Milwaukee DUers, and met RetroLounge at his bookstore the other night. Al's hoping he can list the house this weekend. Keep your fingers crossed!

And feel better!

[yellowdogintexas]

49. thanks friend. I am going back to bed,

I tried to get it together to go in today, but the thought of being nice to people all day just isn't getting it.

is J JIll any good? WW is giving out these coupons at meetings and there are a bunch of them laying around on the table. Want me to snag some for you? I don't think we have any J Jill around here. ..or is it a mail order only place?


PM me about that and tell me where to send them

Oh and how fun to go to RetroLounge's bookstore!!!! I'm jealous.

Hey, congratulations on the 8 pounds off! That alone will make you feel better!!!! I bet Fargo the Great loves the cooler weather too. Hug that big hairy beast for me willya? Do you still have those old party photos from Halloween 2 yrs ago? I could use one for my Before and AFter poster when I make goal in Weight Watchers. That was about 2 weeks after I started WW as I recall. LOL you might not recognize me on the street if you saw me.

[fudge stripe cookays]

51. Oh don't worry about the coupons.

I have plenty because I usually get the latest issues of Martha and some of the other mags that have monthly coupons in them. You should use them yourself!

I know there's a J. Jill in Firewheel. I'm not sure about your neck of the woods. Maybe Hulen? They are NOT only mail order. We have one here in Mayfair Mall, so it's very close. I like it better than mail order cuz I have a devil of a time finding pants that fit and look good. Their stuff is the very relaxed, comfortable "hip thirties to forties woman" stuff that I like.

I think I may have the pix on my laptop at home. I'll try to check. If they're not there, I have a CD of pix at home that I cleaned off the old laptop awhile back. I'll try to see where we put them.

Will give Fargs a big ole hug for ya. We went to the park yesterday to hang out. He dug it. Plus, we have a little park right across the street, so he enjoys chasing the bunnies that live there. :D

[lost-in-nj]

3. Crap Stalin.....

[Parche]

12. 4 more days Kubla Khan

[Starbucks Anarchist]

4. Summer.

:puke:

[XemaSab]

5. Late summer

:P

[AlCzervik]

6. summer.

i hate the summer, i hate the heat and my car seats removing the skin from the back of my thighs and the "Spare the air" days we have here so often because our air is chunky.

[FloridaJudy]

7. Summer

Stay here in Florida for an entire year, and you'll understand why (I've done it for over thirty).

[flamingyouth]

8. Fall/winter

[BlooInBloo]

9. I'm good with all of em. Spring = march madness and girls losing their clothing....

... summer = girls have totally lost their clothing. Fall = football season. Winter = snowboarding and basketball season.

I'm pretty solid year round.

[NewHampster]

10. Christmas

Love Winter. Love Spring. Hate Mud Season. Really Love Fall. Could pass on summer.

But I hate Christmas or as I call it Kissass.

so there.

[nadine_mn]

38. how can you hate the baby Jesus?

:sarcasm:

I absolutely hate the Christmas season, although still will accept gifts....hypocrite? possibly

[China_cat]

11. November 12th through February 15th

Too many birthdays, anniversaries and holidays.

[From The Ashes]

13. Winter...

...something I'll hopefully not experience again for a long long time. :hi: Parche!

[SoxFan]

14. August

I detest hot weather, and I usually feel lousy by summer's end. Reverse SAD, I guess.

[NMDemDist2]

15. the dog days of summer, just before Fall arrives n/t

[femmocrat]

16. July and August. I hate the heat.

I love winter!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

17. Late February.

It's dreary and cold and it just drags on and on and on. You know spring is supposed to be coming, and in March it will eventually start to warm up a little, but February is cold and miserable and lasts forever. February sucks ass.

[SPKrazy]

18. That stretch from November to the end of December

where the days get shorter and shorter

and it is cold

and while the holidays serve to provide some reprieve

there is still a lot of feeling of bluckiness for me

:hi:

[mvd]

19. Mid July until the end of August

I do not like summer, and it can really drag.

[InvisibleTouch]

20. This one.

Nothing to look forward to but months and months of cold weather. And though I've been out of school now for many years, there are probably still some afterechoes of the yearly "back to school" trauma that mess me up at this time of year.

[Dulcinea]

47. You and me both.

Fall depresses me. I love spring in Georgia, though.

[Oeditpus Rex]

21. That which falls between baseball season

and baseball season.

:cry:

[likesmountains 52]

22. Summer..

[Fox Mulder]

23. January 2nd ~ March 20th.

[RushIsRot]

24. Winter!

[Ilsa]

25. Summer. I'm in south Texas. It's too hot and humid. nt

[jimnasium]

26. I'll vote for January

Post-Christmas hangover (I Spent HOW MUCH?!?!?!?)
Crappy Louisiana Weather (Cold, Wet, overcast weather - no sunshine for 2 weeks)
Stuck in the house all damn day, and the whole family comes down with some sickness that lasts until spring.

No snow, though... the lone mitigating factor.

[RevCheesehead]

27. Usually the two weeks leading up to (and including) Valentine's Day.

Gag. Me. :puke:

[Jamastiene]

28. I shall fire the first shot in this year's WAR ON CHRISTMAS!!!!

Muhahahhahhahaha. :evilgrin:

I hate Christmas. It's a season now. Actually, it's more than a season long nowadays. It's half the damn year. They start selling Christmas-y stuff before Halloween candy even gets on the shelves any more.

Christmas depresses me. Always has. Well, since adulthood, it has depressed me. For me, Christmas is always spent fighting the visions of a Glock to my head by my own hand. I despise the way I feel about it, but it's truth. I cannot hide it or fight it any longer.

Peace on Earth. Goodwill toward men, my ass. It's more like, "Move outta the way, Bitch, I saw that Tickle Me Elmo first and my little snot eater's getting it, not yours." What a brutal exercise in some of the worst uncivilized behavior packaged in peaceful hippy clothes Christmas is.

So, I am, hereby, firing the first shot in the WAR ON CHRISTMAS this year. Muahahhahahahah!!!! :evilgrin:

:shrug:
Well, it IS my least favorite time of year.

[madinmaryland]

29. September 11th..

Considering I was on Wall Street at 8:45, to hear these fuckers keep bringing it up pisses me off.

September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th September 11th

FUCK YOU RUDY!

[fortyfeetunder]

30. The last six weeks of the year

It's not weather, it's the frickin holidays!!!
BAH HUMBUG!!!

[KitchenWitch]

31. Late summer

[deadparrot]

32. Definitely winter, particularly January and February.

The general warm-fuzziness of the holiday season is over, but it's still freezing and dark and generally miserable. By that time, I'm itching for warm weather and baseball and spring break, and those are two VERY long months.

[Quantess]

33. February is the worst month.

But in more general terms, January thru March.

September is the best month, IMO.

[Theres-a]

34. February.

It's a short month that goes on forever.

[Fire Walk With Me]

35. The 80's.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

36. March and April.

I have not much use for spring, especially early spring when it's muddy and crappy out without at least being snowy (though it sometimes still is!) or cold enough to get a little pretty frost in the air.

[nadine_mn]

37. Summer! I hate sweatin...I love Winter...even in MN

ahhh the colder the better...

[Catchawave]

39. The holiday season....

Which is starting in September now. Way too long and commercial. Prices are too high, travel too expensive and crowded.

Bah, humbug :silly:

[raccoon]

40. Summer. You have to hibernate (or estivate, I guess) indoors.

Extreme heat and extreme humidity (this past summer, we were lucky. At least we had a dry heat.).

The AC in my 4-cylinder car just doesn't cut it on these extremely hot days.

[MrScorpio]

41. A hot sticky summers

I never had all this humidity when I was kid

Been dealing with it for over 20 years. I still hate it

[Tyler Durden]

42. Winter ROCKS. Holiday Season through New Years sucks the big Kisko though.

I get "Holiday Blues" SO BAD...From the Day after Thanksgiving through New Year's Day....

I swear, if you ever read about my suicide, you won't even have to check the date: sometime in December. Probably my birthday: it's usually the low point.

Winter is great though. Quiet, Warm Fireplace, all the god damned bugs have the common decency to DIE for a few months.

[BlueIris]

43. Spring. Especially early spring. March bites.

[yellowdogintexas]

45. July, August & September in Texas, most years.

Not this year, it has been below normal.


Before I came here, it was what passed for deep winter in Nashville because driving on all those hills is very scary when it gets icy and stuff.


I LOVE spring and fall in Texas, they go on forever. We don't have much winter here at all.

[Pool Hall Ace]

48. When I lived in Maryland, it was March.

Those cold, whipping winds, you're so freakin' tired of the cold weather. And still at the end of March, there were plenty of years where it wasn't particularly warm and spring-like.

Now that I'm in North Carolina, I'm really hating summer. Too hot to be comfortable, the drought, ugh.

[Rabrrrrrr]

50. Summer.

[Zavulon]

52. Summer.

My A/C is high enough to make Bill Gates cry.

[NaturalHigh]

53. Summer.

I hate the heat. I hate the humidity. I hate the sun.

[Radio_Lady]

54. Summer! I'm so glad for a breath of fresh air in October!

I'm going apple picking and out with the grandkids at Halloween!

[greendog]

55. Fire Season = usually August.

I can put up with almost any kind of weather but I don't like smoke.

[IcyPeas]

56. morning

really, morning.
