OK, I'm not sure this was part of the deal when we decided to not go south this year. This is the top of my car with frost at 8:00 AM. Kim had to start her car and let it run for a while before leaving for work. Just another indication that we WILL go south next year!

It is "supposed" to be in the high 60's this weekend...can't wait. I wore a coat last night that I haven't had on for 6 years. I guess I'm lucky that I didn't throw it out. We would really love a beach walk right now. I've never appreciated sweating enough in the past. It's a far better human condition than shivering. I'm not even finding the sunlight reflecting off the shimmering crystals of ice attractive.

All right, I'll stop the bitching...for now. I can't promise that you won't hear future complaints about the cold. I can almost guarantee a future free of heat complaints. Certainly during the "winter" months spent in the Bahamas.

If this is supposed to put us in the "Christmas Spirit", it's failed, but Happy Holidays anyway.
