This is long john weather!

It's cold here. Really cold. Not as cold as Susan's 24 below a week or so ago in Montana, but it's cold. The wind chill right now is -1. But it's sunny and gorgeous out. I'll be braving the elements in about 30 minutes as I go out for a few missed grocery items. I have about a mile round trip walk to get the store (not the one I usually go to because the one I usually go to doesn't carry what I'm looking for). Will bundle up in my long johns, wrap an angora scarf around my face, boot up in my fleece lined warmest-boots-in-the-world boots, and pull up my heaviest wool knee socks. I bought a down coat a few weeks ago and I'm glad I have it. The cats are snoozing away in sunbeams right now.

If I'm not back in an hour, send out the St. Bernard's.
