Canadianmumof5 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 DH just took the kiddos for a walk......it is 35F here which really isn't that cold considering it is January. They all wanted me to go - I said no way!! Part of me says I should just suck it up and go with them, the other part says no way! Curl up on the couch and :chillpill: (haha - the irony!). I wish I could like winter - I really do. Maybe if we lived in Florida - I would like winter :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faithr Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 It takes me a while to acclimate. We are having our first real cold spell and I feel like I am in hibernation mode but as the weeks go by I get tougher! Hang in there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edelweiss Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 I'm not the outdoors type at all. It doesn't matter if it is winter, summer, spring or fall. It is either too hot, too cold, too sunny, too wet, too buggy, or too something for me. :lol: I'd always prefer to be indoors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennsmile Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Ya'll proabably don't want to hear my boys were playing outside in shorts, short sleeves and no shoes. Most of the day. :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ottakee Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 What is funny is that this was me 6 years ago. I was an INDOOR type of person, no snow activities, just house to car to store to car to house type person. Fast forward to now: I walk up to 4 miles at a time in ALL kinds of weather--rain, snow, wind, cold (as cold as 15 below zero), etc. The only time we don't walk due to weather is a COLD RAIN (like under 45 and really raining hard) or thunderstorms. We also have 4 horses, chickens, rabbits, a dog, and 3 cats..........that means chores 2-3 times a day EVERY day out in the cold. I have even ridden the horses when it was as cold as zero. The key is LAYERS and the right type of winter gear..........and you do get used to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pretty in Pink Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 I hate being cold. Hate it. I still go walking, 2 miles each evening. You jusy need the proper gear for your climate. A nice insulated coat will keep you toasty. You won't even feel the wind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheres Toto Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Being out in the cold (or sometimes in the house cold) makes every joint and bone I ever injured hurt. That includes one foot, both knees, one wrist, all fingers. It also gives me an ear ache and makes me sneeze. I don't like the cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
