Winter can be a brutal time for those of us who desperately hate the cold. We long for our care free days of sundresses and flip flops, and bunker down indoors to avoid the harsh winter air. If you are one of these people, here are 10 things you are probably experiencing this winter.

1. Denial

You are in total denial of the temperature outside. You keep your summer wardrobe inside your closet probably a little longer than socially acceptable. It isn't until you see the first day under 40 degrees that you begin to come to terms that winter is here.

2. Nostalgia

You begin to reminisce about all the fun you had when it was warm out. The beach, picnics, bonfires...

It all simple so simple then...and coat free.

3. Anger

You become angry at the temperature outside. You turn off the news when the weather comes on. You scream when you see snow drifting outside your window. WHY WINTER, WHY?!

4. Refusal to leave you house

Because of the frigid temperature you bundle up under the covers, turn on Netflix, and refuse to leave your cozy warm house.

5. Frozen

6. Dreaming of a Vacation

You start dreaming of a fabulous vacation on a warm island with a beautiful beach and sun. Emphasis on warm.

7. Despair

You are beginning to think that winter will never end. You will always be this cold. You will never be able to go anywhere without a coat again.

8. Planning outfits with 15 layers

Whenever you actually decide to leave the house you layer up with coats, sweaters, insulated socks, scarfs, and anything else warm that you can fit on yourself without looking too much like a marshmallow.

9. Hopes for Spring

You remember spring is not to far off, and there is some hope that this eternal winter will end.

10. Frozen...again

Just when your hopes for spring begin, you go outside and feel frozen. There is no end in sight.

Bundle up and stay warm! Spring is not that far off.
