You know usually winter comes and I enjoy it. Even though my body takes a strong dislike to it seeing I have bad circulation and rhaynauds.

Usually I see the beauty of both Autumn and Winter. The cold days are distinctly clear and on days of sunshine I really feel warm inside (even though its freezing) I snuggle up watching whatever cheap, saddening show is on like how reggie the dog has one leg and if you ring this number millions like him could have a home.

Also, and most obviously there is the buzz and excitement as christmas closes in. The seasonal spirit, people are always so much chirpier during this period. ... That is untill the January sales fall upon us when middle aged mothers turn into England's rugby players and barge there way through the masses to reach the ten pack of baby lotion and half price embroided bed sheets at low low prices....

Usually people talk about how winter is the worst season of the year. That the winter blues saddens the heart and boredom, depression and self pity kick in. This is usually nonsense to me. I don't get effeted by the shortened days and gloomy weather!

But this year is different. Today lasted longer. I had nothing to do. I went our and the rain dripped down my cheeks after flattening my fringe which really cheesed me off. I went to visit my grandparents and nothing went right.

I realise that as this year closes in it will be different. I have to deal with my Grandad's illness and his distinct change. This, had affected my outlook on this season earlier.

But now I sit with a red nose, freezing feet and hands. I am sipping tea and thinking of those good old times and christmas' past.

Winter isnt as gloomy after all

I love snow....


looking at it.

Last year my school had a half day. Partly becasue the snow was thick and partly because the entire sixth form and rest fo school were snow balling each other to an extreme

So year 12 and 13 all went to the park! Which looked stunning... completely white. The lads had brought a sleigh and people were peeing there names into the grass (hell i didnt know you lads could do that!!!)

But after 15 minutes my hands had blown up like sausages and turned a pretty blue :( I had to go home. It took another 5 hours to take off my ring.

still was funny!

Awwwwwww.....
Screw Reggie, I already have a dog. I hate Autumn and Spring (the in between seasons) and love Summer and Winter. Tea is nice becasue it warms you up. I was out all day raking up leaves which is annoying becasue I'll have to do the exact same thing next week. Ah well. Bring on the snow, I say.
