It's bad enough that it's cold and miserable, but I can't even AFFORD to be cold and miserable. I just got my gas and electric bill, and it was $850!! On top of that, the Christmas bills have arrived, and they're depressing. AND my taxes are due next Wednesday, which went up $600 for a grand total of $6400. And that's just my Town/County tax bill. The school tax bill doesn't come until September!!!
I just figured that I would start this as a "bitching" thread. Feel free to join in the whining and complaining.

I'm pissed just reading your post SB.
I hate that it's cold, it gets dark at 5:00 and there's nothing on TV.
We should be like the bears and just hybernate.

SB,
I left behind all those Rockland County, Orange and Rockland Bills for......the same crappy bills of Atlantic County, South Jersey Gas, Atlantic City Electric, etc., etc. A little cheaper but not much. This is a sucky couple of months. Oh, BTW, we had 4" of snow this afternoon. Madone!

We got 1" or 2" of snow today. The roads are icier than my boss's heart. I spun my truck around earlier going to the store. I spun back around and drove my hind parts back home.
I don't blame January, though. January is my birth month, which therefore makes it the greatest month of the year.

Maybe you should treat yourself to a day of Shopping, lunch and some time at the Salon. it should make you feel better.

Well at least January is almost over. A little closer to Spring time. I'm probably jinxing myself but while it is cold and miserable here also Winter hsn't been that bad. At least snowfall wise.
SB, Go buy you some Calgon and let it take you away.
Welcome back XDCX!!
XD, Great to see you post again! Happy Belated Birthday!
I always get this way in January. I need a vacation, but I have to pay my utility bill instead!!! Btw, I reset the programmable thermostat this morning and lowered the heat down to 60 during the night. Time to toughen up!!

Indeed. Why can't he just be creepy and breath heavily in the background, like a serial rapist, like us normal folk?

Gets dark here at 4:30.
I laughed really hard at a commercial the other day. It was a little bear talking to his mother. "I can't hibernate!"

2 inches of snow and you're sliding everywhere? Don't move to Northwest Indiana!
