Ccccccold

I know! I'm turning into a wimp!  I feel very much a sissy when I complain about the cold. I mean, I was born and raised in Alaska! I'm used to being cold for many months at a time. And used to the dark. I lived in "bush" Alaska when the temps would get down to -30 and stay there for a week. And be dark.  This morning it was -11 and now it's 8 above. I'm still cold. Wore wool socks to work.

So why now does the cold bother me? Did my blood thin?  Did I get used to warmer temps? Is it the higher humidity? My weigh loss so I don't have as much insulation?

All I know is that I want to move south, far south!

Aunt Krissy,  wimp.

  6. Nah, you're just going through a rough spell that's making you question your sanity, lol. My daughter is in Florida for school, and she hates the hot, humid weather. About a month ago, it actually got down to 54 in the late evenings. She says she was the only happy person in Florida, ha!
