A doubtful blessing

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!

I absolutely hate this cold, wet weather. The none stop rain we've been having is depressing.

I feel like a caged bird, but, I can't face going out in it. It's straight to the super market and back for me. x

Hi Sherry,

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.

Take care

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

Know the feeling Sherry, but don't like to say I have to go when someone has bothered to stop and chat. Have a nice day x
