In Denial


I don't ski -- I should have been born in Hawaii. I don't watch hockey. I don't like snow!!!

Looking out my back deck and this is what I see?? COME ON, Mother Nature!! WAHHHHH!!!!

It's only the beginning of October and I had to layer up with my merino wool thermals, balaclava, toque, and mitts to go for my run. WAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

I don't mind the trainer -- I actually really like my Computrainer, but I am already pining for summer...

Got to get Daddy-o to put my winter tires on. WAHHHHHHH!!!!!!

I had to run through the snow and mud and my dog got FILTHY. WAHHHHHH!!!

The stupid crab apples are now in the mush state and there are still TONS hanging in the tree. WAHHHHHHH!!!!!

I had to scrape the windshield off this morning. WAHHHHHH!!!!

OK, no more whining. Keith told me I was only allowed one whine for 2009, and since I already whined to him (a private whine doesn't count), I thought I'd make a solid public whine and get it right out of my system... :) :) :)

WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

I think that deserves a big whine! Um, at least its pretty?

Keith said...

That's a good whine! If you're only going to do one, make it a good one. I always say. Go big or go home. Or is that Euchre?

I think I would like a Computrainer.

I'd have taken a pic of the snow, but Linda has the camera. That scraping the car windows sucks slough water with great scummy lumps of algae and dead frogs.

That had better be winter tires on the **CAR**, not the bike.

Actually, I think it should be one whine topic, so you should be able to whine more about the snow and cold weather.

Ugh, I'm with you! We're supposed to get snow on Friday and it's already been in the mts. Skiing isn't enough fun to make snow and cold weather OK IMO. Stay warm!! :-)

Melissa said...

p.s. I really am amazed by the cold weather and snow that you guys up North deal with every winter and still stay sane! How do you do it???

Julie said...

Melissa -- How do I do it? I WHINE!!! WAHHHHH!! LMAO!! :) :) :)

Keith said...

Julie actually doesn't whine. She goes "GRRRRRRR!!!!!"

And so far, this hasn't been real snow. Not really. I mean you can still tell there is grass there, and there's no drifts. Nor has it been cold worth talking about. Come January, a day like this and we'd be out in our shorts and T shirts.

More people should have the attitude of my kids...we were trying on winter wear and I told them that snow was coming...they were SO excited and danced around and can't wait...I will teach them...

It is okay Julie, I am in denial too! I think I'm going to have to give in and set up my trainer on Friday. :(
