-17 on 17th

Here it is January 17th and it was minus 17 degrees when I got up this morning. I understand we are in the coldest time of year for Ohio but I sure wish it would warm up. This morning I managed to do a little vacuuming and that is about the extent of doing anything......yet. I think I will do some laundry and that is about it. When it is this cold out it just kind of makes me lethargic and wanting to drink warm drinks and read or eat comfort food which I am trying not to do! I am kind of on a plateau right now with the weight loss. I am not going to give in though. I am noticing so many good things from dropping the pounds that I will continue no matter how slow the progress. With the help of my daughter-in-law I have been researching my eye problem. I am going to have a lot of questions for my specialist on Monday. I originally wanted to go with surgery as soon as possible. Now I am thinking learning to adapt to this situation until or if it gets to a point I have no other option. Perhaps the doctor will convince me differently but that remains to be seen. I will let you know on Monday where things stand. I see the doctor at 9:30 in the morning so will blog in the afternoon. Until then, stay warm.

  1. The cold is really getting to me too Lois. We went to Carrollton to get Jake and it was so cold it was just ridiculous, about froze just getting into the restuarant. And I seem to stay cold forever after I've been outside, must be these shot nerves.

  3. I agree, when it's this cold I just want to stay in my PJ's and get a good book and read and drink hot cocoa.
