Brrr, It’s Cold
I don’t wanna blog. I’m cold, and the cold, cold, cold week is just beginning. My guess is that it’s going to get into the high teens here. The dogs HATE the cold. We need to get coats for all of them because their teeth are chattering outside when it’s below the mid-30’s. I don’t blame them. It’s kind of eery here when it’s cold - it truly looks like we’re on another planet or something. It looks like there’s fog hanging over the neighbors’ yards and everything looks blue. I’m not sure what’s causing that, if maybe it’s just the lack of street lights. Regardless of what’s causing it, it appears that we’re going to have to find all of our boxes of clothing and jackets, because what we’ve found so far isn’t close to warm enough. I’m doubling up on sweatshirts, but my outer zip up sweatshirt fits too snugly to go over my regular sweatshirts properly. I feel like the Michelin Man and my arms are all stiff, but I can’t go out with just one sweatshirt or the wind bites right through my sleeves.
Damn, this is a boring blog entry. I should’ve just posted a picture, instead. But, yay me, three weeks of daily posts, lousy or not, they’re here.

This post made me LOL. I know it wasn’t meant to be funny and I do feel badly about you and the pups being cold, but it conjured a mental image of Randy from “A Christmas Story”, swaddled to the gills so he can’t put his arms down, only with your face.

It’s okay, I can picture that, too. But, damn, I hate the cold. At least, Cricket, who has been a pain in the ass lately about trying to run away and eat poop hundreds of feet away from us, also doesn’t like the freezing cold and actually hurries to pee, and then runs to the door.
