some of my girlfriends have talked me into Facebook. so if any of you have received an invitation from me (or haven't) let me be the first to tell you i don't know what happened when i registered. everybody in my gmail account popped up and there were all these check marks and questions and all these people i am sure would not like to be involved in my life any more than they have to-
i am so afraid i might have asked ron lumpkins to be my friend. not that he wouldn't make an excellent friend. :)
ok so who out there is hot natured? (that's when you prefer to be warmer than colder- right?) it seems we are all one or the other. here's my little realization i had today- bear with me...
in my thankful mode this morning i was pondering what i really liked that i got for Christmas and didn't ask for-
first would have to be my electric blanket. even if it's off, it's warm. i think that may be because it's a blanket but i am still impressed.
second would have to be my monkey socks. i did ask for the monkey house shoes but the socks were a bonus. they now are better than the shoes to me. way to go mark!
next had to be the hair dryer. i didn't ask for this but i did buy it with my Christmas money. it has this cool button you push and it sucks up the cord. apart from the bruises on my hand when it whips around to position- it's the highlight of my day.
and it was then that i realized that the things that made me the most excited this Christmas were things that generated heat. hmmm. let me rephrase that...were things that kept me warm (?)
so i am now realizing my focus is to stay warm. bless my husband who finally broke down and lets me keep the house on a blazing 68 and purchased a heater for our window infested sunroom. i am almost tempted to stay indoors now in order to keep warm.
i realize i would never make it anywhere past north Alabama. i am such a thin skinned pansy i know. but i worry about the weather a lot when i fantasize about the Amazing Race. i know i would get stuck in the "Arctic Edition" and what then?
and then i married the short sleeves in the winter guy in your class that you always wondered if he was cold. as i speak my nose is cold. does anybody have clever ways to stay warm. i can't take this.
