Winter’s here?
Winter is an awesome thing when you’re still in school. A snowstorm or sleet usually means a delay or snow day for children. They get to have fun sledding and making hot chocolate.
Not for us working folks though. There’s not really a snow day when you have work to do.
Sometimes it’s easier to leave from work early if the weather’s going to be bad. Not really for journalists though. The news never stops. Sometimes the weather is the news.
We had some sleet in the area I work in yesterday. I was really nervous about driving but luckily since we had rain, it was just slushy. We had snow earlier in the week and that was scary when I was on some back roads.
Guess it’s time for me to accept that winter is basically here. I just get annoyed because whenever we have bad weather, it’s not enough to keep us inside for two days. It’s just enough to be a nuisance, to make driving miserable.
I’m not a person that exercises all of the time, but I do like to occasionally take walks outside the apartment and go to the park. I can’t really do that in this weather.
What about you? Does winter annoy you or do you like it?
