Is Today Really Colder?

On a normal day, I’m a home body. I’m so happy and comfy in my home, so when the snow flies, or threatens to, or its just a bit crappy outside, I am inside. In my books, winter is not for building snowmen or going sledding. Its for hot chocolate and blankets. (Don’t worry, those of you who are worried for our kids getting fresh air! Brady LOVES winter 😉 So taking the kids outside is more his gig.)

Because I hide inside for the most part, I guess I’m sometimes out of the loop on the weather. This morning in particular, I woke up WAY colder than usual. I’ve always felt colder than most people around me, but I also used to be stubborn as a mule about wearing flip flops in snow, capri pants late into the fall, etc. These days, I’m WAY more proactive about my temperature. Today, I’m wearing jeans and a sweatshirt, and socks! And I’m FREEZING! I have goosebumps on my arms and legs. My nose is cold to the touch. So are my toes. Is it really that much colder than yesterday?? Its 22 in here today, and the furnace is running fine!

Thankfully, the coffee is hot, and the snuggle blankets are nearby. And snuggle buddies also don’t hurt!

Rowan is rocking a shirtless morning, like pretty much every morning, and Solly is pants free. I guess its safe to say I’m on my own cold little island! If Wavy were awake, I’m sure she’d vouch for me. She can appreciate the warmth of being a burrito. I should take my cue from her and be a burrito, too.
