Autumn and Winter are almost here!!!

[midnightmosesuk]

I hate the winter. It's not the cold per se but heating is very expensive now. Last January my gas bill weighed in at £400. And it's going to get worse, the gas companies are already talking about price rises. Better start wearing my coat indoors, bunch of money grabbing b*stards. :x

May I ask whats 400pounds is in USD?

I think it works out at approximately $600. Buggers.

There's a vibe amongst the people in my area that think we are going to get one of the worst winters ever.


Thank god i got a 4x4 this spring.

Same here in Illinois, if last winter wasn't bad enough with the abnormally frigid temps, I have been told to brace for the worst. In all honesty, though, the winters used to be worse 20-30 years ago, and Chicagoans took pride in their ability to stand it. Now everyone's been sissified. By coincidence, I bought a 4x4 last week. I'm ready for some fun!

I love Winter and the Christmas/Thanksgiving holiday season. It just feels different. The air smells different. It's a great feeling for me. I'm close to my family, so the last part of the year is always my favorite.

One complaint. Wish we got snow in Arkansas.

Only thing I hate about winter (I actually love winter) is how blind one can get when the sun is beaming off the white snow.

We have winter... For maybe a month. Earlier this year it snowed and that threw us for a loop, hell I even wore shorts to the shop. I love cold weather, the colder the better. I went to New York my senior year in high school and we played in the snow, people were looking at us weird, but it's like this, in New Orleans if it snows its like Christmas, cold is a treat.

Raking leaves, thanksgiving dinner, Julsnus, Kardus, making mulled wine (yum!), Nat King Cole on the stereo as I decorate the yule tree, winter nights under a down blanket as the wind howls outside. Hot tea, a good pipe, and a good book next to my fireplace. Who could ask for anything more? :P

a homeless person in detroit

Perhaps it is just one of my blonde moments but I don't get it...the picture of the homeless Detroit person. Did he/she fall into a puddle? I think this picture would better be suited with the caption, "Help, I've fallen and I can't get up!" Anyway, I'm not gonna let homeless people bum me out about colder temps! I'm looking forward to dusting my hiking boots off to venture out in areas I avoid during the summer because of snakes...UGH, I hate those things!

He was frozen in ice, and the visible portion is above the ice. It was under a bridge, or in a abandoned building. He had been there for quite awhile before anybody thought to do something about it.
