Another cold day, about -31 with the wind chill. In the past three days I've been out of the house for about half an hour total. I spend a lot of time indoors in the winter, a lot of quality time with my tiny house so I've been sorting, cleaning and purging junk for the past couple of days. I prefer to be alone and undisturbed when I clean, shop, fold laundry, etc but these past few days have been a little too much alone time. If not for Charlotte's smiles and cuddles all day long, I would likely go insane.
I found my fleece-lined snow pants so now that I have all my winter wear ready, I should get motivated to go out and walk in the evenings, or walk to the gym. I just hate the c-c-c-cold weather. I prefer fuzzy slippers and a warm body under blankets, thanks. Jack and the girls tolerate the cold weather better than I do, so I would rather have my hands in warm soapy water doing dishes, than get out and shovel snow of make a snowman - brrrrrrrrrrr.
On that note, I'll pull another load of toasty warm laundry from the dryer then cuddle Charlotte with her warm fuzzy head against my cheek. Every time I hold her and feel her warm head and body, I am reminded that she is alive and healthy, and that warms my heart like nothing else can.
charlotte,
