Poll question: What kind of day do you prefer (of these five?)
I'd have to go with sunny as my favorite, but I do like snow sometimes.

3. Snow!
Big fat flakes of snow pouring out of the sky and covering everything in huge drifts, so you can throw snowballs and make snow angels and snow men and everything...and when you're absolutely freezing you go inside and drink hot chocolate. And I don't care if that makes me extremely cheesy.

9. You can be. It's not difficult to do.
You don't need to have survived the certain-death situations I've managed to scrape through; just let go a bit and pay attention to the basics.

Look outside at that foggy day, and instead of bemoaning how bad it will make the traffic, take five minutes to look around and notice how soft it makes the world.

Then load one of your old favorites into the CD player in your car, and appreciate the extra listening time the fog has granted you during your commute.

There is good in everything. You only have to look for it; it's there just waiting for you to find it.

7. Stormy days always give me energy.
I've never known why. Sunny days make me want to crawl back into bed and sleep. Probably the sheer weight of expectations.

10. Sunny days for me!
If I don't have even a little bit of sun, I get depressed....

I can go several days without it, as a bit of blue sky can do the trick also.....

But the sun really does it for me!



:woohoo: :woohoo:

15. Cloudy, gray day with no rain.
I've heard the Irish call it a "soft day."

17.  Violent thunderstorm! I can't wait until it's warm enough for one
of those! When I was little I loved when we'd have a storm and the power would go out. We lit candles and kerosene lamps and I got my own flashlight. It was like a party.

20. Rain, maybe with some thunder mixed in
But yeah, nothing beats a rainy day. Can just kick back and listen to it fall, makes for good book reading time.

21. If the rain comes
they run and hide their heads
They might as well be dead
If the rain comes
If the rain comes

When the sun shines
they slip into the shade
and sip their lemonade
When the sun shines
When the sun shines

Rain, I don't mind
Shine, the weather's fine

I can show you
that when it starts to rain
everything's the same
I can show you
I can show you

Rain, I don't mind
Shine, the weather's fine

Can you hear me
that when it rains and shines
it's just a state of mind
Can you hear me
Can you hear me

22. Stormy days.
As long as the storms are typical summertime thunderstorms and nothing damaging. After that I'd pick snowey days, because they're so rare where I live. We might actually get some snow today, though :bounce:
