As a lifelong Vermonter, I've come to expect the cold weather in January and February. It happens almost every year. But as I've gotten older I've noticed that it seems to be harder to stay warm during cold snaps like this. Especially when the wind chill brings it down to -20.
But, I have a nice warm apartment, which helps, and two Christmas gifts that help make it a lot more bearable nice warm slippers from mother and comfy athletic pants from Laura. It's nights like these that I enjoy getting those on!
Times like this also make me think about how much I hate winter. At least, the really cold winters. I don't mind it when the temperature hits zero a few times during the season, but prolonged cold snaps are for the dogs.
Spring will be here before we know it and this will all be a distant memory. In the meantime, I'll try to stay warm, keep busy, and think about those wonderful warm days that are in the near future!
