A Chilly Start

Back to our regularly scheduled programming…which consists of frequent whining and weather reports. Let’s begin with how freaking cold it is today. This morning I looked out the window to see sleet and snow. I realized I’d need to warm up the car, but when I went out to do it I was incredulous. As the freezing cold air swooped in to sting any exposed skin I was thinking “what, is it January or something?” before realizing, “no, but it is December already”. December. Dang. Double-dang. At least we made it to the playground on Friday. It was a bit blustery that day, but sunny and in the 40s. Now it’s suddenly sub-zero. Well, the wind chill is at least. The actual temperature is hovering in the low teens. Not that one could really tell the difference. I suspect it will be some time before we visit the playground again. The little man is a little trooper. He loves going outside in all kinds of weather. Over the weekend he got too excited when he saw me taking out the trash. He tried to rush out behind me, with bare feet. I will try to tough it out occasionally, though. Hopefully we’ll have a decent sledding season ahead of us.
