Brrrr.... why am I always so cold here? My hands are almost blue, and that's indoors! It's the humid kind of cold, difficult to escape, and the heating in our house (radiators) isn't very effective. We turn it on in the mornings but by noon the house is like a fridge again. I'm only warm while exercising or showering. Time for the long johns, I guess! and gloves, and earmuffs, and scarves... does anyone make a nose muff? Perhaps a full face mask would do the trick.

I'm whining so I can tell it's nighttime and I'm tired and a little hungry. Just say it - 'put on a sweater, make yourself some warm tea, and buck up already Mindy!' Okay. I will. Shutting up now.

Still love it here. Even though I'm shivering.
