Is cold today
As I'm looking on our town website to figure out how to get Harvey a social security card (don't get me started on that...) I notice a helpful box reminding me of the outside weather:
Hi winter! You snuck up on me, didn't you? I was all, LA LA LA, fall weather is pleasant and brisk, and then BOOM! I'm walking the dog and I can't feel my fingers. And I can't yell for him because my jaw is frozen. And I'm wearing the same smelly long-johns day after day after day. And on some of those days I don't get to shower. Actually, maybe that last bit of info is going too far...
In the past I have said things such as "I hate winter," which I will not stoop to uttering now. I don't want to offend the friends of winter lobbying group within my household. I will say that the newfound difficulty with going anywhere outside of the house makes me more inclined to live my life entirely within these two floors. Which is appropriate for a new mom. But still, showering might be in order...
