    It is a noble attitude Cacian and probably better than moaning, however last week I took my new bike out for a ride and was absolutely freezing. I had two pairs of gloves on and four layers including two coats and couldn't feel my hands. That's not fun. Tomorrow's snow means that I'm walked to work again and walking back, no doubt dodging snowballs each way. It's supposed to be spring. This time last year it was 20 degrees, this week has been down to -5 at times. We are coming up to about 6 months solid of grey skies, rain, snow, ice, cold etc, etc and I'm just really sick of it. I forgot what the sun looks like.
    Haha Neely I know what you mean. Still it makes me think about how our wild life must take it and I am guessing very badly. They are pushed out of their natural way and that is worrying. We humans adapt but animals such as birds and sea life because of their immigration season get extremely muddled up which affects their breeding their natural habitat and also their survival. There is something not quite right yes but whilst we continue to cope nature may not.
    I hope it for the best for our natural instinct to let the weather works its way forward and us moving forward with it too.
    it may never try
    but when it does it sigh
    it is just that
    good
    it fly

    Sunny, but humid, after 2-days of rain. Clouds are sailing to Lake Tahoe; and the rivers run with new gold.

    I've just spent the last two hours asleep on and off, laid on the bed. I blame work and the weather. I am usually tired come Friday but not usually as bad as this. I'm sure I am adverse to the central heating, I don't think it is in my head. It hurts my eyes and zaps my energy. Mrs Neely has the thing on permanently. I keep turning it off when she is not looking and she turns it on when I'm not looking. She's out at work now so I have turned it off. Log fires just cannot be beaten.

    What's annoying is that 'the experts' said because we had such a crap summer, we would have a 'mild' winter. Got that one wrong, as they did the glorious summer which is annually predicted in this country and never appears.

    Another day tomorrow with heavy snow predictions - another day sat in the house wasted.

    My word. She has the heating on all the time? It gives me headaches. I only turn on for about 1/2 hour at the most. And it's off again.
    I don't respond to central heating very well it makes feel very ill.

    LOL that is exactly what I do with mr cacian. In the middle of winter I have to have a window open in the house. I air the house on a daily basis come rain or slate. It is healthy so I have all the windows opened in the morning to let the air circulate and then 1/2 hour late I shut them.
    Thebathroom window is on and off opened and closed.

    I would not bother listening to the weather forecast because it is pointless unless it is aan emergency. Life goes on and humans are adjustable as the wind. Why worry about it is my motto.

    It is snow snow snow outside today. The birds seem distressed but not too much I hope. The roads outside my window are getting their coating of white.
    It's truly winter all over again.
