I like it when it's cold because you can always heat yourself up, but when It's hot you can't always cool yourself down!

YES!!!! I have said that for years when I get a confused reaction to my basic statement of "I really hate hot weather".

Well... I have not encountered this problem... lol
If I have the AC on or if I get some sort of air from a fan or from trees, stay in the shade, drink something cool... I'm okay.



It seems like in the winter... and mind you, it doesn't get as cold as in the Eastern states, I am always rubbing my hands together to keep them warm. Gloves don't always work because I'm at work typing and sometimes I feel like my fingers are about to fall off, not to mention my feet. In a cold environment, the body must work harder to regulate heat. When I exercise, geez... it takes a while for my body to start getting warm, it's slow and painful lol... until finally it has enough heat and I feel like moving and motivated... it is HARD to start exercise in the winter, all I want to do is stay under the covers under a thick pajama! But my doctor says that I MUST keep exercising even in the coldest of winters lol.

Yes, it does feel good to be under the covers, snuggled while enjoying some hot chocolate but we can't do that all day lol and we must get to work or our chores. Getting out of bed in the mornings is a nightmare... not to mention the cold toilet seats! lol My friends and family members who suffer from arthritis are wishing for warm weather. Simple: Cold hurts me, sweating doesn't.

I guess I am like a bear, when it gets cold... my biggest wish is to hibernate

We must be related, Carol. I feel exactly the same way. Wake me up when it's Spring-time.

Went to my friend Terry's house for Thanksgiving with his family and on the way, got sleeted on......when I returned home, I saw that the city I live in got snow!!! Yep, it was on the roofs and lawns......too crazy....

Will do!

I was listening to an oldies station (I guess tunes from the 80s are now oldies? lol) Anyway, "Endless Summer Nights" came on just now, by Richard Marx. Geez... that really brought some summer memories that gave me a little warmth :P Like someone in youtube said, It brings back the innocence of just being young and either having a crush or in love. Those endless summer night was something you looked forward to every summer. Still a beautiful song.
