Warm Winter?
Back in August and September I remember the weatherman saying we were going to have a warmer than normal winter.
Yeah. Tell it to the single-degree temps we’re getting.
Every conversation I have lately seems to revolve around the question of how to keep warm. I even got into a serious debate about the best way to keep faces warm while working out at the barn–one girl likes ski masks, which I hate because you can’t hear as well. I wrap a scarf around my head, which looks dorky but is warm–until the scarf falls off, anyway. Someone else has this very cool tube-like thing that she just pulls over her head/around her neck and then can pull it up over her nose when she needs to. It’s elasticated, so it stays on her face–unlike my scarf. I’m not sure where she got it, but it’s genious.
Someone else asked me how I stayed warm while working, and I said layers. “Like sweaters and shirts?” she asked. Yes, I said. “And a pair of long johns, and my riding breeches, and then my jeans.” “You’re wearing three pairs of pants?” she asked. Well, yes. It’s warmer that way.
Everything at the barn is blurry now. By the time I get home I’m too cold and tired to think about it. Fortunately, it was almost 20 degrees today, which was positively warm compared to last week. Yippee! I’m thawing out! Maybe I’ll remember something more exciting than cold-weather clothes to blog about. Surely my life is not that boring?
