Okay ... I’m going to have a little moan.

I’d be happy to chat too, but I don’t have anything to chat about. Being alone 24/7/365 means I’m living a “groundhog day” every day. No new experiences for the last two-years ... like many people, I would say. Thank you, though. 🙏 @Nelladell

@Carissimi i thought u're housebound because of covid...u can still go out!

I’m housebound because of the pandemic and the weather. If it was just the pandemic, I would go for walks, but not in this weather. @Wiseacre

@Carissimi Up to October I could at least escape into the woods for some solitude. Once hunting season commenced I lost that venue. There is more involved but that’s why I feel October was the start of cabin fever.

Ah yes, now I understand. When does the hunting season end? @SageWanderer

@Carissimi Pretty much the end of February so March it will be safe again. I could go out on Sunday until then but the spirit hasn’t moved me yet. Considering the gunshots I hear it seems to me that a few hunters are trying to offset the price of meat.

How long does the hot weather last there, and what month before you can walk outside again? @SW-User

@Carissimi It can last 5 months but mostly there's about two months that are really bad. Often most of us get up early and go for a walk at 6am etc before the heat and sun get bad. By March it's the start of autumn so temperatures are warm but mild, and nice to be outside.

Well, only another 6-weeks or so to go. Hang in there. @SW-User

I know. I’m just feeling fed up with it, but winters here can last through May, although hopefully, the temperatures will be above 32 F by April. @Eddiesolds

@Carissimi It warmed up here abit over the weekend. That helped me alot. It started snowing again this morning.Yhe freezing will be coming back soon. So gross! Lol

I just checked your profile, and see you are further north than I am. This is hard enough, I don’t think I could survive a Canadian winter. @Eddiesolds

I work out, (yoga included), read, and I started a language course. It’s the solitude, day in and day out. I enjoy my own company, but not 24/7/365. I get through it somehow. Just feeling it a lot right now. Walking outside is my only outside activity, and when I can’t do that, I feel hemmed in. @Niloo

Thanks! 🤗 @SW-User

@Carissimi You're welcome. 🤗
