Ok, some good things with having winter and snowing;
- I can clean the apartment without feeling I should be outside instead.
- I can sing beautiful songs and watch the snow fall through my windows.
- I can drink hot chocolate with whipped cream.
- I dont have to care about my hair, I just wear a cap.
- I can take hot baths every day with lit candles and nice bathing salt in the water.
- I can sit and daydream about sun, outside coffee tables, barbecues and dips in the water.

Hi Anette,
ReplyDeleteI love winter! But I suppose it doesn't snow that much in England, so I haven't had the chance to get fed up with it.
Take care,
Marie
Hej Anette
ReplyDeleteGeez, you made me laugh with the hair thing, lol
And your whole post made me smile... I imagine you singing (wish i could hear how it sound), and taking hot bath with nice candles around.
Still on the good things, do you enjoy to read a book while drinking a tea, too? This is one of my favorite thing in winter, just taking time to read a good book, while drinking a big mug of tea (i especially enjoy my "duo de roses", chinese black tea with roses leaves from Damas and Provins)...
Ok, i must go, i have my therapist in about 20 minutes or so, but this post really put me into a good mood and bring a smile on my face - thank you. :)
*Hugs*
Steff
When I read that ou are singing...I heard your beautiful voice!
ReplyDeleteBut do not worry , the winter will be over soon =)
Lots of love
Ena
Yes, that's all nice... I was cleaning up just today... :) and I wrote it my tomorrow's Finnish language school my lesson... :) but I have to learn the words yet... and the rather heavy one... :)
ReplyDeleteHej Anette!
ReplyDeleteI love snow :-) We usually don't have much where I live, so when it comes it's always a magical surprise :-) But I understand that sometimes it can be a bit annoying.
Anyway, when I read your previous post I was going to suggest you to look at the brightest side of things because winter has its positive sides too, and to think that we wouldn't enjoy spring so much if we had no winter at all... ;-) But then, here you are with this post where you list nice things about winter ;-) So, thank you for being so positive and never let bad feelings prevail! :-))
It's really nice to keep in touch with you through your blog, it creates friendship and positive energy between you and all of us :-)
Love,
Elisa
Hi Anette!
ReplyDeleteOh I like hot chocolate with whipped cream, so good! And I want spring to come also. There is so much snow everywhere! Have a wonderful evening!
The last item made me laugh. :D
ReplyDeleteOh, and I imagine you singing too.
Well, everything has its positive and negative side. I love to listen to music, eat hot baked potatos and stay under the duvet in cold weather, but I don't like the boring mood, haha.
More warm hugs to you!
As i said I never have some experience with snow, but as I think that rainy days is very similar i have also some things to talk =)
ReplyDeleteRainy days is not bad at all, when you stay in your home and don't have nothing more to do becouse the rain (or snow in your case) we start to meditate in our own life. We start to remeber good times with friends, family, loves, in other words, our own history.
Sometimes, becouse the hectic days, we forgot the small good things in our lives, we forgot the reason of life the reason of we wake up every day. I can not say what is this reason becouse everyone have different reasons to live, but is important remeber of this reason and I try to do this.
It's important to remember the good persons that are no longer with us, remember of the good persons that are with us, maybe pick up the phone and call some friend that have a long time that we don't see, call some member of our families and say I love you or, I don't forget you, or something like that.
This little things make us more humans and not only robots. For me, this is the better thing in the rainy days, is the moment that I recover my humanity that every day the world tries to take of me =)
Have a good evening and a good dining my dear swedish singer
Hugs and all best wishes from Brazil =)
Hey :)
ReplyDeleteSee there are good things too ;)
So keep up thinkin of good stuff ;) and your mood will bright up ;)
have a wonderful evening and smile a lot
hugs
Love and Respect
yours Chris :=)
By the way: i always daydream, doesnt matter what the weather is doing ;) i dont know...im a dreamer :)
And you can make beautiful photosessions outside;)Also - eat cookies, watch films, write something. Winter is nesessary for us northern people - it gives our eyes and souls rest and peace... But it was enough winter this year and now I long for SUN!!! I'm a spring person too so I'm tired of sleeping and want to wake up. And don't want to study :( Our classes start again in 4 days and I still feel so bloody tired... And it's so cozy here in St.Petersburg=)))
ReplyDeleteSky's still dark but hey, in few weeks the sun comes to our places! And until it does we watch sun-filled
movies, listen to "Sahara" and read The Great Coala GangBang's old sunny blog;)
Hugs from colder country,
Kira=)
Hmm, have to agree with you on those things.
ReplyDeleteThough the hot chocolate with whipped cream is telling on me, i should really take less if i want to keep my figure xp.
But here it's starting to get dangerous cause they just said on the news the salt company that made sure the roads weren't iced are now only going to do the highways, so that leaves us with icy roads...
Love, Lisa <3
Anette, those are the same things i do. I love hot chocolate with whipped cream! Have a nice evening!
ReplyDeletehey Nettie!!
ReplyDeletewell here in the part of Mexico where I live, never snow so it's ok, I think...
In this right moment is raining since sunday!!!
and it looks like this will stop until next sunday!! 7 days with nothing but clouds in the sky!! It makes me feel depress
the sun always shine in this season of the year I mean is not to hot as in spring but at least we have sun!!
and presumably at this time of year should not raining, at least not where I live the weather is not like this, is different, driest..
well there's no other thing to do that watch T.V. and read a good book, clean the house, pass time with your dears..relaxing things!!!
well have a good day dear
hugs and love♥

Hey Anette
ReplyDeleteWell those are indeed things you can do but aren't you a little bored?:)
I have a list here of things you can do when having to stay inside. If you're bored, you can have a look at it:):
- Watch TV
- Play videogames (With son and/or bf or alone.)
- Play Family games (Always nice to do.)
- Listen to some music
- Read a book or magazine (Listening to music meanwhile is fun and relaxing.)
- Surf on the internet (Youtube or facebook or something.)
- Chat with people on MSN messenger (Or any other chat program.)
- Do some work around the house (I advise cleaning and such with music on.) (Makes it less boring.)
- Sleeping a bit (if possible)
- Think about life (Put things in a row and think of some solutions for problems and such.)(Not advisable if you wanna relax though.)
- Plan some things out (Maybe you could look for your next vacation or try to plan a visit to friends or family and such.)
- Call some people to have a chat.
- And last but not least think of things to put on your blog.:)
Hope this helps and gives you some ideas.:)
PS: I strongly advise the games on facebook such as Cafe World and Farmville and maybe Vampire wars or anything. They are a great way to kill time.:)
Oh hehe, always good to see the bright side of things. =)
ReplyDeleteI personally like winter just as much as I like the other seasons, because they're all so special in their own way, and after having three months of hot and energy-draining summer, I personally sit and long for winter and the nice relaxing mood it gives. I personally love to just sit and enjoy a warm and sweet-scented cup of tea or get a little blanket to wrap around me while watching TV. You can't really do that on summers, so each season with its highlights I think.
So there are plenty of things to enjoy during winter as well, and I hope you already feel better about it. Good night and sleep well!
Hi Anette,
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your winter ;-)
I love your program, to be at home and to see snow outside...
Good evening, hugs
Hi, Anette! Look, what I made!

Hope, you'll like it. :)
Oksana.
@Elisa: i have to say your message really moved me. It's so true!!!! Each time i come here, i feel like i come to see some of my friends - Anette being one of them, but not the only one... I love this, i never feel alone when i'm here, and the energy around is so positive. That's why i chose to make my blogger profile open, with a few things about me, and also give a way for all the nice people who wants to be in touch with me (you'll be welcome, and i mean this)...
ReplyDelete@Anette: your place is magic, and you are an angel for us. Giving us a way to be in touch with you (and you with us), meet other people from all around the world, and in a lovely, positive way - it's really a precious, wonderful gift. And i'm really touched about this, each time i'm saying this (and god know i've already told it a lot), i feel tears in my eyes because i'm very moved by your kindness.
With all my heart and soul, thank you...
*HUGS*
Steff
Hehe xD Anette I see that You are so desperated just like me :P
ReplyDeleteI want the SUN!!! :D
Hugs and a lot of snow! :D
Lyckans där :)
ReplyDeletevar glad att du sluppigt sitta på Knutpunkten och vänta på inställda tåg :)
Kram!
Hi Anette - its good that you are seeing the positives about the weather but just in case - here's some more good things about snow:..
ReplyDeleteIt makes the world quiet and peaceful as though time holds its breath for a while
Very good for daydreaming - to sit on a window sill, put your favourite music on and dream.
You can make snowmen and snow angels!!!!
Very good for inspiration
Beautiful to walk in
look at a snowflake and marvel at the miracle of it - each one is a masterpiece!
but if it all gets too much and you really are not liking it - have an indoor beach party! Turn the radiators up full - put on a bikini - invite friends round to do the same and eat ice creams and play holiday music - watch holiday home movies and share holiday stories! :)
great ideas,really:-)
ReplyDeleteI think they are important for women in winter time...
Hi !
ReplyDeleteMy best friend made a painting of you, for her art course at school. I found it soooo awesome, that I wanted to show it to you.
I hope you will find it well done :D !
Here it is : http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/5276/anettevarg023.jpg
I love you Anette, you're so amazing ;) ! Hope to see you again in your next tour in France :D ! Come in Alsace, we are waiting for you !!
PS : Sorry for my terrible english, I'm french ;) !
i quite like winter--then again i am partial to all winter sports. wish i was skiing or skating! we dont get much snow in NYC, unfortunately. I'm used to crazy Chicago weather!
ReplyDeletethe feeling of the wind on your face, all bundled up and shielded-- beats burning heat in my book any day.
enjoy the winter for me, i dont really get one!
Ok, here are good things i think with having summer and this super-powered sun:
ReplyDelete- I can go to the beach (but on the way to the beach, sun burns me :P)
- I can walk shirtless (everyone in Brazil does this xD)
- At night, the climate is awesome with wind (while during the day it's horrible)
well I can think only of these :p
enjoy these good think with winter... kram ^^
Hello Anette! I agree, those are some
ReplyDeleteof the good things about winter...
Though I still prefer spring and fall,
it's just so pretty outside
because of the different colours of
flowers and leaves;=)
Hope you have a good day girl!
Hugs and love, Katie T.
Aww bless, you do make me laugh :D. I had some snow the other day. I hate it now too boring.
ReplyDeleteand I miss your singing. :(
Good Nettie, now I hear you talking girl ;-D Let's not get all depressive just because of the weather :) Ok it is winter, and we all long for summer, but we can't change it, so let's live with it and make the God damn best of it! :)
ReplyDeleteNighty night
Good evening, Anette!
ReplyDeleteI love it that you're a person who can look on the good side of the things you actually don't like ;)
And I have to agree with the hair thing :D and yeah, hot chocolate is one of the best things in winter!!
Lots of love xx
P.S.: This post made me really happy..I don't know why but it made my day ;D
I just can say: I LOVE YOUR BLOG, because here I feel so close to you, my favourite singer and idol ;)
Oksana: Wow, that is so cool;=) I love it!
ReplyDeleteLysth: Tell your friend its amazing and that she is really good at painting;=)
ReplyDeleteHi A -
ReplyDeleteSomebody asked me recently if I would swap living in a country with 4 distinct seasons. For a country with constant hot weather all year round.
The answer was definitely 'No' - Each season has it's own unique character. Admittedly winter can drag on for eternity and the dark nights are a bore. But as soon as the Spring flowers start peeping through then the whole mood changes.
It's lovely to have some hot weather but I prefer a variety - Which we certainly get here in England.
Warm Winter wishes Peter x
Hey Anette!!
ReplyDeleteI lovee snoww! It's beautiful. As Peter said, I prefer variety too. It's nice to have snow and then sun and so...
Oh and don't forget that we need to take care of planet so don't waste a lot of water in hot baths ;)
Have a lovely day Anette :D
Hey there!
ReplyDeleteRight Anette! We always have to try to see things that suck us in a positive way to keep our mood in shape :) You know that it is most of the time the perspective we ourself give to things that happen to us which makes things harder than they need to be. You can be VERY creative in that time and use it as good as possible for your own purpose.
I send you the smell of springflowers, the humming of bees and the warmth of the sun!
greez,
Lisa
Beautifully said, Anette! I had a nice giggle at your 'snow' post and then read the good things. So true!
ReplyDeleteWinter is my least fav season, but all in all I do enjoy the different atmosphere's the 4 different seasons bring. Always a change and something to look forward too, I suppose.
Huggs
Oh dear.. Would you like to trade homes with me until next season? hehehe
ReplyDeleteIt's so freaking hot here today.. 33°C.. Oh my.. I took 3 showers already and I'll take one more before I go to bed.. It's toooo hot!! I took a shower about 30 minutes ago and I'm already all sweaty and oh.. I hope winter comes really soon! hehehehe
hugs!
Hahahahaha , I love Anette how you put a positive spin on your previous negativity ;-) What an awesome thing to do!
ReplyDeleteWinter IS great - for snowboarding , skiing , sledding , hot chocolate , curling up in front of the fire , snowball fights ... etc. ;-)
But of course , it'll be utterly LOVELY when spring comes :-)
Love you SO much Anette , you are such an inspiration and BEAUTIFUL person!
- Suzie C. ♥
Heii Nettie! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for this post, you made me think a bit something positive of a looooooooong never ending and snowy winter. ;)
Hey, you should add to your list that in witer time you can do a snowman! ;) That is something you can't do on summer time. :)
Have a great day,
and biig warming hugs! :)
With love,
Ewe :)
If something really bothers you it's always practical to do that kind of list of good things. Nice thinking! We will survive with this winter! =)
