It's practically a blizzard outside - it feels like sleet. I went to the school where my daughter teaches to see the children's holiday program, and it was sweet, but it was super cold inside. Luckily, I'm cooking a ton of chicken wings today, so that should warm up the kitchen, at least. We never have this kind of cold and are unprepared, to say the least!
I suppose this is the winter atmosphere we normally lack, but I'd just as soon skip it. I've got to find my gloves, if this keeps up. Next thing you know, I'll be buying snowshoes. Well, it makes the season a bit more dramatic and surprising, and throws us off just enough to get a little fun out of it. Many a joke will come from this, and since no one with any authority seems to take climate change seriously, all we can do is laugh. But there is an edge underneath. While people deny the truth about our planet, they cause suffering. If I'm feeling cold, I can only imagine what the folks in the rest of the country are feeling.
