Savour the moment and enjoy your day Annie!

Sounds so cozy. Wonderful to just sit back and enjoy it. I am on the couch nursing a bad back, which I pulled taking laundry out of the dryer. Go figure. I see flakes coming down but have not heard of additional accumulation. Ten inches is enough, thanks. I can’t wait for spring.

No snowy morning here, icy yes. It looks like we barely dodged another power outage, but only because the weakest trees were "trimmed" by last week's ice storm. Keeping fingers crossed now that the wind doesn't pick up.

Ded tired, I hope you feel better soon. My GF is still nursing a sore back after shoveling. Winter is just hard.

I truly love winter. I enjoy both shovelling, walking in the snow; and being inside looking out. Currently, Bud is asleep on the back of the couch, in front of the window.

Summer, I hate with a passion :-)

Dedtired I hope your back feels better soon.

Good Morning everyone. I hope you all have a nice relaxing day today. We heard song birds yesterday while running in the forest so that's a good sign.

Jasdip, I love all the seasons. There is something wonderful in all of them.

We are finally having a day free from snow...still cold, but the sun looks beautiful out there. Snow coming back for us on Sunday and I am dreading

it. Roads, drives, walks all clear, and now we can look forward to starting

all over again. I hate winter too...funny, loved it best as a kid. :) Now, I

love Spring above all else.

50f here. A bit damp today but fine for walking into town to get my covid shot. A hopeful day. Spring is definitely here. Daffodils getting started, birds really going at it and I’ve had my first jab🤗

Roxsol if our summers weren't so humid, they would be more palatable. I can't imagine living somewhere where the seasons didn't change, I do like the variation.

I laughed at my little guy in my local convenience store. He moved here 5 years ago from Pakistan and he couldn't get used to our summers for years. I was so surprised and said it was hot there, but he can't stand our humidity.

Jasdip, it’s all what one gets used to.

My husband always says “Somedays chicken, somedays feathers but always enjoy the hunt.”

Floral I watch something on YT mostly to see the swans pass by in the background. Earlier in the week I noticed several bushes along a canal turning a brighter spring color. It was so nice.

I love all the seasons as well, but not shoveling snow...no thanks! LOL I’ll enjoy it from inside where it’s warm, especially right now with almost 2 feet of it on the ground. It’s so powdery that it’s sparkling everywhere.

Jasdip - I'm with you on summer. It is my least favorite season. Heat and humidity, added to the crunch of beach-going summer tourists where we live, are unbearable for me. I prefer the quiet of winter, under a heated throw with a hot cup of tea. The birds coming to our feeders have been fun to watch, and the snow is beautiful.

a trip to Cancun sounds really good right now ...

One thing about drought in So. California, the winter is beautiful.

Winds have ceased, the daffodils are still blooming, Niobe's Tears too, the clear blue of rosemary flowers, and the hydrangea buds are swelling. The camellia bushes still have tons of buds, and Nuccio's Pearl has never bloomed better. Temperatures in the 70s this weekend, but pleasant enough now as well.

I wish we would have some rainfall instead.

Yes, it's a glorious winter wonderland here with the sun glowing down on the snow. I have my sunglasses on, it's so bright and beautiful.

Here along Lake Michigan it is super-snowy and super-cold and super-clear skies. The snow sparkles, like a 6-year-old was handed a big glitter shaker. The bopper-birds (I don’t know my birds, they are sparrow-like and bop around) are all puffed up and bopping around the tree that they love on the property line, it gets the best sun all day long. About 5 degrees warmer to a balmy 15 and it will be nice for a bundled-up walk, before it warms up to the 30s and the streets get all grey and slushy next week.

I am quite content living with spring-like temperatures all year in Los Angeles, but I will say that I also enjoy going to the desert for some heat now and then, which is where I am now. I do not need seasonal changes, although I do have trouble sometimes remembering what month it is. We have seasons in the desert - the mild winter and the hot summer, and I have gotten used to the heat we have here in the summer. I could never adjust to cold, which is one of the main reasons I left San Francisco.
