Reminds me of a song:

January, sick and tired you've been hanging round me. ( or did I change the words to fit my feelings)

Another SAD sufferer I suspect!

I think you changed the words to suit you Me.
Paulst I used to love the winter but now in the last three years I just want it to quickly pass by.
Arron we do get bright winters when the sun is out. It is out today and I took 1/2 and hour of its time to snowblow the driveway. We had more snow in the last to days overnight so the plow truck went by and I had to do it again. At least it is more exercise.

When I was much younger, I used to love Winter with bright frosty days and if we were lucky, a fall of snow but now, im like you, I just cannot wait for it to go.

I guess since the nest is empty it makes the winter longer now.

I would like some snow, but prefer sunshine if possible.

Weve had all weathers in one week. Sun, Blizzards (we made an semi-igloo!) gails and rain - still smiling -I think

Best when its mild and the sun shines, wonderful
