A few days ago when the temperature was oh so low and at freezing point, when out shopping I met so many people I know who wanted to stop and chat. In the normal way I would have liked that as I am a widow living alone, but all I wanted to do was get home as quickly as possible into the warm and have a nice hot drink. To cut a long story short, I felt as if my veins were freezing up inside me and - worst of
all - my chest was full of pebbles. Roll on summer!

Totally agree. I hate this freezing weather. I was in town on Wednesday to meet friends for lunch and although it was lovely seeing them I just felt so rough and just wanted to get home. Can't wait for spring. Be lovely just to sit in the garden.
Hi Sherry I could not agree more about wanting to get back in the warm when it is freezing...the shock to our lungs is awful...like daggers taken out of a freezer! Your pebbles analogy is also spot on, I have a continual raspy feeling from the inflammation in my airways which feels like a handful of gravel going up and down!!
Summer will be here soon when I hope you can get out more to meet friends, but as I am curled up in front of my toasty log burner enjoying catching up with how you are doing there are some upsides to this time of year. xx
