Baby, it’s cold outside!
Today is a day for warm oatmeal and hot cider for breakfast. When I left the house this morning, it was -17 on the house thermometer and -18 on the car’s. You know it’s cold when there is ice on the inside of the bus windows. But, hey, we’re Minnesotans, right, and we knew it was coming. Rather than wait until the end of the day, I will do my gratitudes early.
Today I am grateful for:
- Thermal underwear
- Smartwool socks
- Lambswool sweaters
- Engine block heaters
- Furnaces that work
One thing’s for sure, temps like that will wake you up when you take the dog outside to piddle!
And now for a bit of warm fuzzy for a day like today …

My car gave me the finger this morning.

Beautiful socks, Boyd. I love the colors.
