It doesn't matter how much warning we were given on the news, it was still a shock to my system this morning to look out the window and see white. Lots of white. Argh. Snow everywhere. I am never mentally, physically or emotionally prepared for that first day that signals that all life has ended until next spring. Which appears years away at the

Mind you - I suppose you were in a warmer country last year, which makes this seem worse!

In 22 years of living here we have had 1 day of snow!!

btw - just to reply to this post I looked through last years winter icons and re-loaded this one - LOL!!!

Thanks for the snow icon *grins* That's where I like my cold weather. In an icon.

Now that sounds more like it.

We don't get snow in Tamworth very often. We keep it indoors

That looks like fun. And where I'd prefer my snow too!

Snow always looks so pretty, but I don't think I'd like to live with it. :)

My sentiments exactly =)

Snow is so exotic for me that I don't get why people hate it. I used to live in Germany, so I do know what's it's like (at -20C) and I loved it! It's so invigorating, and the air's so dry, your clothes actually provide good insulation.

Try our miserable wet winters where the air's so damp you can't get properly warm.

I guess it's all relative. It is pretty to look at and invigorating if all you have to do is enjoy it.

But after 40+ years of having to shovel it for hours on end in order to get out of a driveway or slip-sliding all over the road hoping to get to work in one piece, it does lose it's shine after awhile. It's sort of like going to a nice hotel. Which is nice and enjoyable except when you have to spend 6 months in one. By then the novelty factor has definitely worn off and you can't wait to get out of there =)

You won't like lowland English snow then, it manages to be wet and miserable, not very pretty and still gets in the way.

Er I'm afraid I still love snow!
I revert to being a kid a gain and skip if it's snowing.
I do understand other people not liking it though.

Well it does explain your "Let it Snow" fic.
