Zzzzzzzz.........I must get sleep. Dear children of mine, please, let me sleep. I understand that you like to see my smiling face, but it would be a much bigger smile if it was daylight when you first wake up. This little game of tag in the middle of the night isn't fun for me anymore. Please stop.
We braved the frigid temps yesterday to visit with a friend. I think the high reached 16 degrees; add in the wind chill and it felt like single digits. After having such mild temps in December, this truly bites. Give me sun....give me warmth....winter be gone. Sometimes I think if it's going to be cold, let there be snow. Then I think of the wet gloves, boots, and coats that will be all over my kitchen floor. The "I have to go potty." I'll hear after I get them all bundled up, and well, snow isn't such a wonderful thing, afterall. Just bring me the sun, dammit.
With the weather so cold we're going thru heating oil like....well, like some might go thru chocolate. Not me, of course, but some people eat a lot of chocolate. Our last fill up was 2.5 weeks ago and we got 150 gallons at 2.06 a gallon. Um....I checked today and it's almost on "E". Excuse me? Rumor has it that the price is now back up to 2.22 a gallon. It would probably be cheaper to heat this house on chocolate.
Did I mention that I hate winter?
