The Holidays are behind us for another year, the parties are over and the decorations have been put away. Now what? Apart from some indoor exercise, maybe the odd movie, some reading, an afternoon nap on the weekend and perhaps some weight loss, there is nothing to look forward to in the short term. The Holidays are a bit of a let-down in that respect. So much hype and then when the excitement suddenly stops, I’m left feeling lost – like I’ve forgotten to do something. I usually like to complain about the winter weather in January, but I can’t even do that because it hasn’t been that bad… yet. It’s been cold, but we have certainly been lacking in the snow department. I know winter will arrive and then I’ll have LOTS to keep my “bitter meter” ticking, but until then, what’s a girl to do?
After 7 long months a wonderful day has arrived. Today’s temperature high should top out at around 19 degrees Celsius (66 degrees Fahrenheit) and while that’s typically not something to get overly excited about – I’m ecstatic! To me, this weather means the beginning of “Patio Season”. You know the season – when everyone’s cares are washed away by pitchers of beer, sunshine and simply hanging out. Yep, today’s that day and now I just have to figure out how to skip out of work early. Is a stomach ache @ precisely 3:00 p.m. too obvious?
