Fed Up Of The Wind

 Is this the windiest winter for some years, or am I just becoming a wimp? Excuse the profanity, but I hate this fecking wind. (By the way, I know I swear a lot, but I don't often swear to offend, generally I swear to add humour, colour or effect to the spoken or written word.)  Honestly, two things restrict me from normal everyday life up here, the wind and the intense heat. Neither are safe to go out in, both leave me frustrated and miserable. I don't mind it being windy, I'm used to that, but there is a level where it becomes unsafe to be out, and we seem to have had much more of that this year than I recall in a long time. As I've said before, if anything were to bully me off this mountain, it would be the wind ... but where would I/we go?
