So tired of winter

I am SOOO tired of winter and gray skies and rain. It has been six months now of gray skies, snow, rain, gray, a month of fog in there too and rain. Did I mention rain? I have to sleep with earplugs a lot of the time because the sound of rain dripping into the gutter is driving me over the edge...

Yesterday I went into the one slightly trendy clothing store in my small town on my way home from work (after I checked out the thrift store) and I couldn't find ANYTHING that wasn't a dull colour.

I am so sick of it and so depressed and drained by it...all I wanted was to buy one inexpensive new article of clothing in a spring colour and everything is gray and miserable still. I want SOMETHING the colour of spring, of Easter baskets and Smarties candy. Just a little pick me up.

Now, my job isn't permanent and I am trying to be good and save as much money for the summer when I won't be working and beyond that who knows when I will get my next posting, so I have to be careful, or I would head into the city to look for a pretty something in a pretty colour. But I can't do that because I don't trust myself and I will come home with more than I need or want and $200 will be gone when **if** I can find something in my area I would be happy with a new $10 tshirt.

Yes, I know I am whining but this last week has hit me like a ton of bricks that I am so sick of winter. Littles, if you read this, I finally understand your posts :))

I'm sick of winter too! and though we have appreciated the moisture... I'm sick of snow for one season.
