Now you might laugh at my title of my post but I have to tell you that until this year I have always liked winter. I have grown up in VT after all and winter is a BIG part of our lives. Super sub-zero temperatures are not. We survived round one and round 2 is hitting tonight. The weather man said this morning that it was going to get between 25 and 35 below tonight. He has no idea how lucky he is I can’t reach right through that screen and smack him for that forecast.

So I guess from Autumn says Arizona is out. I don’t do super hot very well. So I guess it’s California here we come. LOL In all honesty I could never leave. There’s something that keeps you here I don’t know what it is - crappy weather, lousy job market, high cost of living or just the serene, picturesque country living. Whatever it is I know we aren’t going anywhere.

My husband has entered winter sloth-like state and it is driving me nuts. Usually right after Christmas he holes up in the house and except for work I can’t get him out from under my feet until spring. This year he has found High Stakes Poker and he parks his butt in the computer chair as soon as he gets home and only gets out for supper and to go to bed. He doesn’t do one friggin’ thing around here. My husband is usually a good guy, showers me with affection, doesn’t go out drinking with the guys or any of that but this is my greatest pet peeve.

I had been asking him to help me move a sofa out of the playroom for 2 weeks. I can’t lift it by myself and I’ve had a space cleared for it for a long time. Sunday night I said “We still have to get that couch upstairs” since he had agreed we would do it Sunday and it was 9pm and he had the audacity to get all pissy and mumble something about doing it to shut up my nagging. Hold me back sister!! If you don’t think I lit into him for not helping me with one single thing and the fact that for 2 weeks I had been asking for help, so sorry I can’t lift an entire couch by myself, I’m a wuss I know, and then he gives me grief???? Told me he was tired of listening to me so I told to move the GD couch the first time I ask and you won’t have to hear it again.

He is famous for telling me that I take on too much by myself but it’s because he won’t help me!!! Can he really be that dumb? He’s a man of course he can. LOL I just don’t get why it’s such a big deal and I probably never will. Anyway my couch is in its new spot now. Yeah me!! LOL
