“Remoted” – Day 392 (Monday)

It was chilly today and I was not exactly a fan of the temperatures in the 40s, but at least it wasn’t the 30s. Or snowing. Cooler temps are great for sleeping, but it's not so much fun for sitting and working all day. It felt like today's weather was draining the life force from me. There was a late  morning hot cocoa break, which helped kill the chill briefly. 

Back to soup weather.

Each of the 10,000 times I let the dogs outside there was a bit of grumbling and some heavy sighing and a wish that the weather was ten degrees warmer. Even five degrees warmer would have been be an improvement. While I grumbled, the dogs barked, but I don't know if we were vocalizing about the same thing. 

In addition to the deeply disappointing flashback act of turning the heat back on today, the wardrobe had its own flashback. There was a base layer under a spring sweater, which felt reasonable, but after opening the door once for the dogs, the denim jacket was grabbed from the back of the chair and put on. It stayed on all day. 

Luckily, Sunday’s activities included soup making, so there was a quick hot lunch available. And tomorrow holds promise, with a forecasted high of 62, so maybe I can skip the third layer again.
