Winter Gloom

Now that the holidays are tucked away in last year’s calendar I  begin to look forward to SPRING!

Don’t know about you, but January – March can be awfully cold and dreary. Every day I look for the evening light, little by little it hangs around longer and longer.   I was told that after December 21st it gets lighter each day by a full minute…Day by day…just love it.  Yes, it is starting to get brighter and brighter each day,  but  the cold is also getting colder and colder.  

Right now we are experiencing a cold wave…you know saying “cold wave” just sounds so burrry cold…who wants a wave along with the cold… how about when they say, “There is a cold front”.  I  can’t help but wonder what is happening in the back, a warm back?   Well, no matter what word you attach to cold it still a chilling word…

Now  love a summer chill.  Yes!

Of course, everyone is complaining about this COLD.

I don’t understand why. I mean we are living in the Northeast and the calendar indicates that we are smack into…. WINTER!

When did we become so soft?  Hey, in my book we are ahead of the game, no real big snow storms.

Now that is something to complain about.

Snow, snow, snow and more snow is more annoying than cold, cold, cold, and more cold.  At least we don’t have to shovel the cold.

All in all, as all things, this soon will end…as the days go by we’re getting closer to spring, and better yet summer…so for  now I will brace the Winter Gloom…and look forward to the summer winds….
