It Is Freezing Out There

I cannot say that I like this cold weather. We have been in the single digits or colder all week, and I am looking forward to above freezing weather!

This time of year, I long for the summer months when going out the door to check on the animals means tossing on a pair of shoes.

I CANNOT get away with only putting on shoes in this weather! Instead, I venture out in so many layers that I start to resemble the little brother from A Christmas Story. It is comical, if your not the one bundled up.

Generally, I do not mind being bundled up. It is the time involved to get bundled, and the time involved to take the layers off. Especially, if I am only coming in for some water or a bathroom break. Then it seems pointless to spend the time taking off layers and putting them back on. Of course, if I am only going to be in the house for a few minutes, I rarely take all the layers off. Just the necessities like my boots and coat.

I am beginning to think that I would much rather be a sheep this time of year. The only thing they have to complain about is the lack of fresh pasture to graze.
