Seems like the season for woolly hats and blankets is almost over.
I’m looking forward to spring, to being able to get outside for walks more. I’m not looking forward to the increasing wind and storms that are sure to show up again. The areas around us are planning for fire season already too—not something I’ve ever seen before in this area of the country.
It all feels a bit too apocalyptic for my tastes. For my comfort level.
So yeah, I’m looking forward to woolly hat and blanket season again even more than spring and summer, and even fall, my previous favorite season of all.
Sure, we still get the winds in the winter, but without the resistance from the bulk of the leaves on the trees, they don’t tend to fall on houses as often.
*sigh*
Maybe it’s just me getting older.
But the world out there is getting increasingly scary.

I agree, Linda! Our world is now a very scary place to live!

Me, too. Summer used to be my favorite. But fires, and flies, and heat so hot, you can’t go outside without mosquitoes… I’d forgive it all to get to swim though.

It’s been ages and ages since I swum outside. Give me a heated indoor pool any day. 😀

I prefer a good clean heated indoor pool, too. But I’m getting desperate, it’s been so long!

The worst weather we had was about a dozen years ago when we got a foot f snow in October when the leave were still on the trees. The bare trees are safer in many ways. We still need the woolies at night, but not during the day. I hope you’re having a nice weekend.

There is something to be said for winter, although I prefer it here in the South where we haven’t had snow in several years.

I never liked wool to begin with, and I’m a summer girl! I prefer the soft knits and flannel feel, wool is scratchy to me. But to each his own they say!

I can’t argue that it can be scratchy. Now fleece – that’s wonderful when it’s new! 😀

Can’t really blame it though with all the crap we, as a society, have put it through. 😦

It’s impossible for me to look at the woods behind my house the way I used to since watching what fire season has been like in other parts of the continent. I certainly understand the feeling that the world is getting increasingly scary.

So sad that the things we used to find comfort in have become dangerous. I wish your woods and you all the best, Lou.
