It’s only September 26th, and it’s 56 degrees outside…but as I sit here in our apartment, I am wearing a long-sleeved shirt, sweatpants, warm socks, a Snuggie, and a blanket.
And I’m cold!
How on earth am I going to survive the fall and winter this year??
I can only hope that my body will adapt. I am comforted slightly by the knowledge learned from past experience, that six months from now, 56 degrees will feel absolutely balmy to me.
Still, summer is gone, and that makes me a little sad.
But then again, the season of drinking warm red wine and cuddling up in a cozy blanket is here.
And that, my friends, makes me happy.
I am so ready for winter. Now, that is something I never said when we lived in Chicago.
ReplyDeleteI have a nice bottle of Bordeaux for Tuesday night. *smiles*
ReplyDeleteI hate being cold, but love the colors of fall.
ReplyDeleteI have been doing aqua-yoga for a couple of years. I love it - we never do downward dog in the water. I am greatly looking forward to doing it again.
It wasn't pointed out to me recently that as the older we get, the worse winter seems.
ReplyDeleteAnd I really hate that my fear of winter deprives me of enjoying the greatness of Autumn...
I really miss autumn. Florida is still very warm...ugh. I do admit I get very cold anytime it's below 65, and when I even think about that it sounds so wimpy.
ReplyDeleteBundle up and enjoy!
I do miss fall. I want to eat soups and stews and drink wassail but it's never cool enough here in the fall... although I do love salads in the summer!
