So of course I made the required New Years resolution to work out more and had great intentions. Then the cold struck. Not just any cold but severe cold we have hit -30a few nights and the tempature is seeming to hover around -15 for almost TWO weeks. We also live on the cold side of town which is 10-15 degrees colder than the rest of town.
Agh, it is not making me very happy :( The good news is that our neighboors and Ken just got Xcountry skis and I really want to go. The bad news is that skiing in this weather makes me want to go back to bed.
So now I am working on another resolution to be more positive. My positive thoughts (which I have had some time to think of while inside incubating) are:
-In our new place we don't pay for HEAT!!! Yeah! I am working to keep the temp at a cozy 71. I love saving $$.
-Since I haven't been out skiing I have started my next set of paintings.
-I have discovered this great website: www.etsy.com and have plans!
-I can't believe that we have been back in AK for a month. We have a great group of friends here that are very supportive.
-I have a job and got a raise!!
-The trees are beautiful all white and frosty. Usually, we only get to enjoy the wonderland effect for a day or two at a time but we have had it for weeks!
