New Years Resolution #4
Here's how I know it's time to go on a little diet: I broke the heel of my favorite boots. Snapped the damn thing right in half. Shoemaker shook his head ruefully then said, "That'll be 38.50." I won't have them back till Wednesday and I believe I'm experiencing withdrawal symptoms. He tells me I most likely caught it in something but I know it's a sign. Hide the cookies!

Brrr.
It is pretty damn cold out there. Cold is one thing when you just have to go from the house to the car to the office and back again. Another thing entirely when you are obliged to walk a very energetic dog who does not seem to notice the cold (until you come back inside and the poor little guy stands there looking at you, blinking and shivering. You haven't seen pathetic until you've seen that little performance.) So here is my specially-assembled dog walkin' outfit for temperatures 30 degrees and below:
- t-shirt
- Heavy sweats
- Fleece sweatshirt
- Sneakers
- Wool socks
- Earmuffs (thanks, Mom!)
- Wool scarf (which I knitted myself, thank you very much)
- Parka
- Lip balm
- Baseball hat
- One glove, a la Michael Jackson (I need the other ungloved to work the extendable leash)
Despite all this, I still love the winter.
