DENVER - The sounds and sights of winter have become, in many cases, painfully familiar. For the fourth time in one day, Daniel Nye is trying to push his wife's car out of a snow rut.
"Straighten up the wheels, Nora. No no no, clock-wise," Nye says.
Nye's father is helping him push.
"It's getting old fast. At this point, I've given up, just expecting this until May," said Nye.
Debbie Stone moved back to Colorado a year ago from California. She is once again shoveling her sidewalk.
"Ah, I mean it was only supposed to be a couple inches! Who thought! This is my workout today I will keep going until I can't," said Stone.
For Denver's Maggie Brodsky the snow in any amounts is heaven.
"I think it's really pretty. I love it," Brodsky said.
For some, this type of weather can affect your mood causing Seasonal Affective Disorder, which is a form of depression.
Half a million Americans will suffer from SAD this year.
"Some of the signs are fatigue," said Mary Ann Watson, a clinical physiologist, "you know you have less energy, the tendency to want to eat some of the worst things for you."
Watson says you can fix the situation.
"Getting some sort of exercise, finding some sort of light source, generally if you don't have something inside, outside is usually better," said Watson.
Also socializing and spending time with friends.
Love it or hate it, there is a silver lining.
"I hope we don't have a water shortage this summer," said Brodsky.
