So it is no mystery, no secret- I hate winter- I hate cold- I hate dark!!
Even as a little girl - I hated the dark -- I remember going into my parents room- most nights- and asking my dad- how many more hours till morning-- I hated the dark and everything it meant !! I was always surprised when he knew-- how did he know ? I still hate the dark-- I hate the dark winter months-- and the years that they seem to last!!!
December is upon us- the "happiest time of the year" -- Baah!! I hate winter- I hate December- I'd totally give up - Christmas, my birthday, new Years- everything to skip winter- and just have it be spring and Summer again!!
2 nights ago- I was struggling with a sneezy cold- Chet was putting together a new TV - cuz ours took a crap!!!
I figured it would be a wonderful night to sit and watch our first big screen flat screen TV- Rudolph would be on shortly and I was sure Porter would love it- the christmas Tree is up- it should be a wonderful joy filled night-
WRONG!!!
After Rudolph - which Porter loved-- Me and him were both so cabin fevery we had to go out to the shop-- we out to the shop- and I pushed Porter around in wild circles in the shopping cart for a good 30 minutes- rotating in and out different puppies-- so he'd stay warm -- and stay occupied- then I tapped my foot on the concrete- like a wild buffalo- until we (me and Chet) decided to take a drive- couldn't stand the thought of going back intot he house!!!
So we went and say Christmas lights- got gas- taught Porter how to drive the truck- he's pretty good!! (so not kidding on that one!!)
Then went home- and tried to go to bed- but I'm just soo twitchy!!!
Then last night-- ooh last night- how I despise you!!
I spetn alot of time at JOdi's house before deciding to go home- it had snowed that day and I wasn't looking forward to feeding animals in teh snow and ice and cold -- once leaving the safety of the city limits- the wind pickedup- to a freaking hurricane speed- my tiny little car gets shifted all over the damn road in winds like that- luckily the drifts were tiny and manageable!!! (lucky for them!!!)
I got home and Porter had fallen asleep- despite my constant conversation with him-- so I ran in and decided to quickly feed things then I"d bring him in and wake him up-- so he might go to sleep at some point that night!!!
I ran in - changed into snow boots- and put on my winter clothes -- all 20 lbs of them!!!
I put on my hat- pulled on my hood- and grabbed my head lamp- cuz its dark- it had been dark for 3 hours (it was 7 p.m. by now!) -- and as I slipped the head lamp over my hood- it tangled- and twisted- and I pulled a little more it flipped down- cracking me on the bridge of the nose- the flow of profanity that came from my mouth was minimal to the amount that was running through my brain- I didn't feel the blood immediately but soon it showed its lovely red head!!!
Running down the sides of my face- I was pissed- pissed i tell you - and sometimes when you are pissed you make bad decisions- I wiped up some of the blood- grabbed the dog food- my knife (to cut the bale of hay) and headed out tot he freaking hurricane to slop some food to the animals- who I soo rabidly despise in teh winter (its a sad thing!!)
I fed the horses- checked on the chickens- fed the starving puppies- - fed their hungry mom - - and the other blue dog- luckily they were well behaved- cuz I was ready to choke a bitch out- by then-- as I walked back into the house- blood streaming down the sides of my face and tears following closely behind- I tried to quickly county how many more nights of this I'd have to endure before summer would show up again- that made me cry harder!!!
I got in - cleaned up- Karston came to play which was nice- and a good break- got Porter to wake up- almost got a fire going- Damn wind messes everything up!!!
So in a nut shell- I hate winter- I hate wind- I hate dark-- I hate hate hate- that it takes 9 months to get over -- and I hate the way I feel int he winter- blah blah blah - - grouchy - and mean!!!
Just this morning I had an argument with Chet over pants- seriously jeans--
so as for me and my house- we hate winter-- we have cabin fever already and we need some ideas on how to curb that nasty winter blues- that have already kicked me right in the face- (look at the bridge of my nose for proof!!)
So any ideas on how to get rid of cabin fever twitchyness for me, a 2 yr and sometimes even Chet!!!
Would be soo much appreciated!! and
if you come to my house- and I'm covered in blood and tears-- don't be alarmed-
Its justa nother day in paradise!!-- Living the Dream I tell you!!!

oh man that sucks big donkey balls! i totally feel your pain about being locked inside during the dark cold days and nights. hate life from halloween til easter.
as for cabin fever cures, take vitamin d. for real. you can over dose, and it does help you feel like a normal person when you don't see the sun for days on end. there's recipes on pinterst for making snow ice cream. (search it and hundreds pop up). could we make enough ice cream to clear our house do we didn't have to deal with it?!? and i saw a thing on pinterest about freezing bubbles, and painting the snow with food coloring. if i think of any more i'll let you know.
So, let me get this straight...you don't like winter? Haha! Me neither. I feel the same way, cooped up and crazy! Must. Go. Tanning.!!!
You crack me up. I know, you're in pain - but at least I get to laugh at it!!!
I am such a homebody that I don't mind winter too much. BUt then again, I don't have to go feed farm animals. So I can't offer you much advise there.
Get some great crafting ideas from Pinterest and redecorate your house with Porter's help.
