Winter Chill, California Style

It's all relative, isn't it?   I put on a warmer coat and gloves today when I went to Trader Joe's.   I bought a new box of tea and ate minestrone soup for lunch.   Besides that errand, I won't go anywhere the rest of the day.   Of course the animals will be calling me so doing my small chores goes without saying.    I've had the heat turned on most of the morning,  I have one more blanket on the bed, and I need to wash sweatshirts and pants because I've been wearing them around the house a lot.   And of course, I am getting a lot of use out of my Christmas Uggs.   For those of you in northern and eastern climates, I don't know how you get through the Winters.   I grew up in Iowa so I know cold.   This may not seem cold to many of you, but it is to me.                                          
                              
 Oh dear, I need a hot cup of tea, a blanket and my iPad.   And then... *yawn* ....maybe a little nap.   I wonder if "Say Yes to the Dress" is on today.   


P.S.  Actually it's in the low 40's but it was MUCH colder this morning.   Too much drama, you think?
