Is it any wonder I get depressed during the winter here?
My husband took his camera with him while taking the dog for a walk on our property. It's like this all over the entire winter long. :eyes:

1. It sure looks depressing to me
Do you have indoor plants to feed your starved eyes with the beauty of plants?

2. No.
With two extremely rambunctious kitties, nothing like that is safe. LOL

3. Try some hanging plants
Your brain will thank you and your eyes will feed.

5. It does but
it's still Oklahoma. The redneck right-wing religious fanatics don't get any better looking or sounding with the change of seasons.

:hi:

6. Geez. Snow cover would really improve that landscape.
Seriously. At least snow is bright and reflects light.

7. Try Vitamin D for the winter blahs. It is like a little bit of a sunkiss.

8. I think it's beautiful! My preferred time to enjoy the outdoors.
Oh, not that I don't occasionally enjoy a nice, warm, sunny summer day, especially if there's swimming or canoeing involved, but give me fall and winter. Summer can go hang itself, and spring is okay if it can manage to last more than two days, which it rarely ever seems to do.

And you would be the contrarian on this. LOL
