No room at the Inn
My parent’s house has one more bed that is empty. After today it will be filled by my Great Aunt and then there will be no more room at this inn. It is nice to have all these people here. It is making my mother a tad more loopy than normal, but c’est la vie.
Now that D has arrived (with the dogs) I am a little more comfortable. He really is my best friend, someone to just pal around with. And since he is my husband and father of our child, he is someone I can dump my son on and not feel guilty.
If you know D, you may know that he is very much against cold weather. We keep our home’s thermostat at 72-74, maybe 68-70 at night.
If you know my mother, you know that she is hot nature and her home’s thermostat is never above 70. And it only gets to 70 if I go and bump it up to that when she isn’t looking.
Well, I was worried about D and how he would react to the cold- the cold outside in Ohio and the cold inside my parent’s house. So I got him a present. Silk long underwear. It will keep him toasty warm, inside and out.
When we got up this morning at 7:45 we were greeting with a view of the white stuff falling from the sky. It is going to continue to fall throughout the day and we should have about 4 inches by tomorrow. When Fuller starts his next cycle I plan on dressing him in his snow suit and making sure he experiences his first real snow. (The flurries in Chattanooga do not count.)
Stay warm everybody!
