I can’t wait for tomorrow. We’re expecting rain and -1 degree (that’s 32F friends)! It’s a heat wave for mid-February. I never thought that I would be so excited for warmer cold temperatures.
I have been struggling with the cold lately. Last week was the hardest by far – on the “warmest” day of the week none the less. At -20C (again, -4F) it’s damn cold. Damn. cold. But at least it’s a dry cold. The worst is the moist days with wind. Wind. OMG. I hate wind. I was on the verge of tears this past week – I work outside some days in case you’re not aware - because my poor toes and fingers had met their match. They were ready to shrivel up and fall off. You’re wondering what sane person puts themselves through this torture just for money aren’t you? Well, not this one. I am paid in pocket lint and stones; don’t worry about me.
I think my year of Maternity Leave softened me. I was more tolerable before. I could take it. I didn’t like it, but I could at least pull through. This winter has been especially tough.
Doesn’t help when my dear friend writes from Florida where she’s enjoying her long overdue vacation. Thanks friend. You’re great.
