Intolerance
It’s getting to the point where I simply cannot handle winter anymore and I am going to have to start brainstorming ideas for getting the hell out of here this time next year. I can’t handle this! I feel trapped, I feel stressed, I feel miserable, I am sick of shovelling myself out, I am sick of boots and bundling up, I am sick of walking everywhere in the snow, I am sick of being cold all the time, I am sick of taking transit in the snow, I am sick of the lack of sunlight, I am sick of EVERYTHING.
I am thinking that if I’m still in this house next year, perhaps I can organize a house swap with someone in a warmer climate for a month or two. They can come & stay here & enjoy the white shit and I can go somewhere to get away from the white shit.
Someone suggested to me that I might be able to afford to get away somewhere cheap for a month on my pension, and I am going to look into that, too. Cuba or Mexico or something.
I just cannot take this anymore and I feel like it’s making me crazy.
I SOOOO know what you mean! It sucks to be Canadian this time of year, that’s for sure!
That’s actually a good idea, to house swap with someone from a warmer climate who wants to ski!
This is one of the many reasons I moved to Spain…
Is there a ski resort near you?
With your writing at the Telegraph and your culinary skills, maybe you could explore a job in a warmer climate? That would be ideal.
Our best friends moved to Costa Rica for those exact reasons.
