Winter Doldrums

Non-Halloween related stuff. Same rules: family oriented, no flaming, be nice. ;-)

There's just not a whole lot to do for fun during January and Feb. It likely stems from my childhood. Jan and Fed were allways like two months of Mondays. It's also two very dead months following October, November and December, which are very full and active months.

I hate Jan & Feb. for the same reasons, they are like a never ending Monday!! Ha ha ha :wink:

To add insult to injury, I have about a foot of snow that I am going to have to shovel up when I get home....IF I get home from work tonight.

I'll probably try to get it shoveled up tonight, because I don't have a huge area to shovel. I'm more worried about my parking space. The last time that got snowed in, it took me a couple of hours to shovel out my car.

Snow-blowers and leaf-blowers waste valuable petro-chemical resources while depriving the human body of much needed physical exerci-..... Okay, I'll shut up now. :|

We have pool. Pool on a Wii...

Prepare for death & follow me.

It appears Winter doodrums has gotten the best of a lot of people. "Food network computer game????" How interesting. I'll very likely be spending more time on the Web during Jan and Feb, but I am not really into games.

I'll also be taking some snow pictures over the weekend.
