Hats off to the nesties in the North!!

I always dream about living in London but when I woke up this morning to the rain pouding down, it took all the strength I had to get out of bed. I dont know how you guys do it every day. I cant believe winter is just around the corner.

 

I just want to go back to bed with a good book and hot coca. Anyone enjoying good weather today?

  • I have a hard time with grey/wet weather too, despite being used to it here!

    Today's lucky: bright blue sky & sunshine, though it's quite chilly.

  • We had a nice morning, cool and brisk, but blue skies. Now it's clouding over.

    I like the rain, like I like having four seasons- it makes you appreciate changes in weather, like blue skies or snow or warmth... I think living in LA would be incredibly boring, weather-wise.

    I sort of agree, I don't think I took advantage of the nicer weather when I had it in Pgh since I knew I'd have another nice day soon. Here, if it's a nice day, I practically run outside. 

    However, I find the weather in Scotland to be the huge sticking point to my DH's argument of staying here 'forever'. I really, really struggle with it. It's so rainy and so dark and so depressing!!

    It is because most of the time you know the forecaster will say "hazy sunshine."  However, when there is something new to report it's big.  When it rains it will rain for 3 weeks straight.  Then you have wildfires to worry about that fall and then mudslides after that when the next year's rain comes.  A postcard I saw once says it all, "California's four seasons:  floods, fires, mudslides, earthquakes.

  • I usually make plans to get out of town at least once during November, since it's so depressing. And we have fake sunlight lamps to help people in the office deal with Seasonal Affective Disorder. I generally prefer traveling somewhere to enjoy real sunlight for a while, though.

  • Because I love the weather!  I hate hot weather & so the highs of 80s at the most make me happy.  I'm best in autumn like weather - cool, sweater wearing - and so London fits.  It doesn't actually rain THAT much...overcast yes, but rain, not so much as people think.  And unlike some of the places I've lived, there is so little snow that I rarely have to shovel!!  Woo hoo!
    I like pineapples...they make life just so much more interesting.
  • Today was quite nice, although I didn't get to spend much time outside. About 70 and sunny most of the day. I saw freaking SNOWFLAKES on the forecast for Thursday. Trying not to think about it!
