I have always loved winter. My thermostat is set at a constant 68 degrees year round. I adored the cold, because I was always so unbearably hot.
This week we are getting our first taste of Autumn weather. Yesterday we had rain. Tonight I am sitting here at my daughters soccer practice and the weather app on my phone tells me it is 63 degrees right now...and that we will see rain again tomorrow. A year ago I would have been sitting here in a T-shirt thinking it was perfect weather. Not too hot, not too cold. Boy how things change.
I am sitting here in jeans and a sweater. I am cold. As a matter of fact I am finding it hard to type this as my hands feel almost numb. I would kill for a warm travel mug full of sf hot cocoa or sf spiced apple cider. Who is this person? Since when do I experience "cold"? The last time I was a bit chilly was on my honeymoon in South lake Tahoe...February 2, 2010. It was snowing and under 20 degrees. I wore a sweatshirt.
How do I get through this when I am trying so hard not to buy clothes? The better question is how am I going to deal with things when it is 30 degrees, or when we go on our weekly family ski trips? I am not cut out for this whole cold thing. I have no experience with it.
Tonight I may actually have to get the fireplace going. Yeah, things really do change.
