Thankful for a warm home!

I woke up in a nice warm bed, thinking about how much I hate getting up on Monday, more than any other day.  I got out of bed and realized how cold it was.  I spent my "getting ready" time thinking about how cold it was downstairs.  I warmed up the van, but it was still cold most of the way to work (it's so big, it takes a while to warm up inside.)

At work, my area is always cold.  Summer and winter...it's cold in there.  In the winter, if I wear sweats, it's not too bad, but I had to wear jeans and a sweater today, since there was a customer coming in.  I froze all day.  Then, after work, it was the van thing again.  The chill is taken off, but I'm never quite *warm*.  I got home and put on sweats and a warm shirt. 

Ahhhhh, I love having a warm house.  The electric bill is going to suck, but I can sit here without being distracted by the cold.  I have feeling in my fingers, my toes aren't numb, and I'm happy, dangit...HAPPY! (Why is Kevin sweating?)

I've been feeling extra thankful lately for my warm house, too.  And you've ALWAYS been cold, even as a baby... so some things don't change.  You always used to hog one heat register, cover yourself and the register with a quilt, and warm up that way.
