So what is your biggest objection to the cold? This is an honest question since I have not lived in "snow country" since the mid 70's. All I remember is being afraid to drive after spinning out on black ice once. But you are used to driving on ice by now, I would expect.
Allow me to help you ...
1) Sitting in an ice cold car waiting for the windows to defrost sufficiently to safety proceed
2) Even in my snug as a bug, in our well insulated, triple paned, draft free home feeling guilty about turning the heat up to 70 on the stoves because I am chilled to the bone.
3) the incessant grey mood altering miserable days
4) ice storms that kill the electricity for days... by the by no electric no heat most homes.. a fireplace isn't a wood stove.
5) not taking the dog for that healthy extra long walk because it is pitch black at 5PM, 20 degrees out or less with 25 MPH winds gusts.
6) standing on the platform waiting for the LIRR train, in single digit temperatures, that is 20 minutes late because of freezing switches.
7) falling on my butt twice
Once walking the dog in the early morning and didn't see the black ice and the second time walking into PT, in the morning for my new knee as I didn't see the ice from yesterday's snow melt. I'm sure both times it was quite a spectacle. I believe a saw 3 people hold up signs that said 9.5.
8) frozen pipes, car battery and me.
9) the women I know who walk all 'scrunched up' because they simply can't get warm
10) our diminished circulatory system's frozen hands...
11) going to work with snow predicted to start at 1PM.
12) the slush in the pothole that when over my galoshes and soaked my socks... won't this be a glorious day.
13) my inability to leave the hot shower.
14) My executive parking lot where the wind blows like Arctic station zebra.
I fight the cold - my arsenal includes a very warm Eskimo parka and an assortment of very warm coats. Guess what? I still despise the cold.
Im sitting on my deck in the morning, its 80 degrees with the umbrella up and open and I have a cup of coffee in hand. My laptop, extra portable monitor and iPad Pro are open on the table before me. The sun is shining, there's a slight breeze, the birds are chirping and a hummingbird is back and forth at the feeders and best of all I'm at work. I have Pandora on and I'm listening to Frank Sinatra when I get bored I'll listen to a little Gershwin. The Mrs and I will sneak off for a quick lunch just before noon. Exactly why would I like the cold?
