10 Reasons To Enjoy Cold Weather

Both in the U.S and back in Britain, people are struggling with extreme low temperatures and snow. My glass is still half full, even though it may be temporarily frozen. Here are some reasons why:

1. It’s the only time of year you can warm up by opening the fridge.
2. It’s much too cold to do any yard work.
3. Your yard looks just as nice as your neighbour’s when it’s covered in snow.
4. Aren’t icicles pretty?
5. I’m not fat. I’m just wearing six sweaters.
6. Animals instinctively more to keep an extra layer of fat to keep them warm. How can you argue with nature?
7. Hot flashes come as a welcome, yet far less frequent, relief.
8. You can always be guaranteed a good laugh when TV reporters are forced outside to report on the weather.
9. You get a round of applause when you finally make out of your house into a store.
10.It’s a great excuse to buy new boots, gloves, scarves, hats. Tick as appropriate.

  • This piece and the preceding would surely look good inside a published book.

    Really good stuff!!!! Comic relief is always welcome and always needed.

  • Cold is cold no matter where you are. I have a sibling who purchases many sets of the same gloves so when she loses them she always has a matching pair! :)

  • Love this, thank you. Now I don't feel guilty for still being in my dressing gown and watching TV at 11am.
