I like the cozy feeling of being in my nice warm house when the weather outside is horrible and daunting. I enjoying getting out there to do a bit of shoveling, fill the bird feeders and maybe take a few photos of scenes that catch my fancy. It&#8217;s exhilarating to battle the elements [briefly] and then come in the house for a hot drink, followed by whipping up a batch of hearty soup. But then, I work at home, and don&#8217;t have to go out and drive on awful roads every day. I can afford to admire winter a bit more than, say, Larry, who not only drives on awful roads, but also works outdoors in every kind of weather most of the year. He&#8217;s glad I am home, whipping up that batch of soup though.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, today, I want to imagine it looks like this outside. I can&#8217;t go out there anyway, with my knee propped on pillows and ice [oh, how I hate icing &#8211; I don&#8217;t care it if does keep swelling down, it feels dumb to put ice on one&#8217;s body when it is 15 degrees outside] I can imagine whatever I darned well want to. I even remember the day I took this &#8211; a sultry, pouting August day that later brought us a spectacular thunderstorm to enjoy with cocktail hour.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3768\" title=\"yellow weed\" src=\"http:\/\/dlynz.com\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/yellow.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dlynz.com\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/yellow.jpg 600w, https:\/\/dlynz.com\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/yellow-150x99.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dlynz.com\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/yellow-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>Have a good one &#8211; I am off to refill my icepack!<\/p>\n<p>Other posts you may enjoy:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/dlynz.com\/?p=2640\" target=\"_blank\">The Calm<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/dlynz.com\/?p=1746\">The Sparrows are Glad<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am one of those weird people who actually like winter and snow.
