Cloudy with a chance of snow

I'm really not a winter person. I like warm, sunlight, green, flowers, etc. I don't like slush unless it is a slushy tropical drink by the pool in the summer. I don't like shoes so I really hate boots. I like flip flops, all colors and kinds. I like waking up to sunshine and fresh air. I like open windows and doors. I don't like driving to work in the dark and coming home in the dark. I really hate going outside in the morning when it is cold and warming up my vehicle. I hate the sound that icy window wipers make. I don't like shoveling snow anymore. I don't like bundling up in layers of clothes, coats, and gloves, etc. I don't like winter clothes. I like summer clothes. Winter is dark and dreary and I tend to gain weight. Summer is bright, light and cheery and I tend to loose weight. Nobody is out in the winter. I really don't like waiting for someone to decide whether I am working or not. I have moved from flip flops to clogs but still can't seem to put on my boots. Rob gets upset because he told me that if I dressed appropriately for winter I might like it better. I see nothing wrong with a tee shirt and clogs when you know you are not leaving the car. I know I'm not leaving the car when there is that much snow outside. I bring a coat and gloves with me just in case, but it is hard to eat M&M's with gloves on. I like summer. Summer means sleeping in, breakfast on the porch, walking through the yard looking at my flowers, days at the beach, evenings on the meadow, campfires, swimming, a tan, long naps, cold drinks. Winter for me is long days at school and longer dark evenings inside at home. I've tried doing things in the winter but I just dread going out in the cold and then coming home in the cold. The only thing worse than being cold is cold and wet. Snow tends to be wet. Our house doesn't do well in the winter. Too many icicles form and bring gutters down. I'm trying to think of something positive to say but I just thought of how sick I've been the last 4 weeks and that doesn't help because winter means flu and cold season. Rob won't come near me when I'm sick so I get lonely. There is more laundry to do in the winter because everyone is wearing more clothes. The house gets tracked up.  I don't like doing laundry or cleaning either. The forecast for the next week is cloudy with a chance of snow. I'm still not getting out my boots.
