Re-learning Winter
When I was a little kid, I was used to winter. Cold air doesn't deter little kids, just ask Jordan. But after 20 years in Texas, where I dreaded summer, I've kind of forgotten. And last year the ABQ had a really warm winter. Not so this year. It snowed before Halloween. It's snowed probably half a dozen times since. Yesterday it snowed, then rained, then hailed. My gas bill was almost $200 this month, a record. And BOTH of my kids are sick. Poor little Jacob has caught Jordan's nasty cough and will be going to the doctor tomorrow, and otherwise will not allowed to leave the house due to his overprotective Mom. I'm ready for a warm spell, and will likely need to wait until May. Jamie is just itching to go skiing, he mentions it every time he looks at the mountain. I can't fit back into my ski pants yet (fyi: ski pants DO NOT stretch), so it doesn't matter to me. So I wonder , will I finally start to enjoy summer weather again?? Today, that would be a YES!!

Ski pants are so ugly on that I can't believe they don't stretch. It's a shame really.
