Preparing for Winter

Like countless other blogs, here will be posted random musing on life, the universe and everything...well as long as the everything includes Films, Books, Motorcycles, Poker, Linux, Python and Dorset.

Preparing for Winter

Published Monday, October 30, 2006 by DorsetBlue | E-mail this post

I did one of the really depressing jobs this month, which is preparing the house for Winter. This is depressing because of what this entails, basically packing all of the kids toys that are for nice weather play up into the loft and storing the BBQ and patio table set in the garage. We had a really naff summer this year as well, with very little good weather during the summer holidays, so most of this stuff saw little use which is even more depressing.
Still the good points are that we can now move in the Garage again and the coming Winter also means the conservatory is cool enough to use for family meals again (had our first Sunday roast this weekend for AGES!) and the shortening days mean more relaxing nights spent with Tracy on the Sofa without kids running in and out of the house every five minutes. It also means Xmas is getting close, which although the expense, is a wonderful time of year when you have kids - especially young ones like the girls.
