and i plan on staying inside til april, or maybe may.

the problem, of course, is mollie.  no, she’s not a problem pet, but she needs exercise.

the problem, really, is that she can’t go walking at the mall.  we would both enjoy that thoroughly.

today we went for a short (only 22 minutes) run, and i wore my workout pants and over them my winter jogging pants, and a winter shirt and a t-shirt and my cold-weather yellow coat that is really kevin’s but only i wear it now, plus a big hat and a scarf and my winter running shoes.

the thing is, you wrap up every inch of your body, but there your poor face is, exposed to the cold and the DAMN WIND.

i’m not ready for it, even though it’s almost december.

i will be getting our cool advent log cabin out in a couple of days.  but hmm, we haven’t had our two new crazy kitties…so i guess i’m now kind of afraid for the little advent cabin animals; i’m not sure if they’ll stand a chance against the kitties.  i’ll have to figure a very high place to put it.

we survived thanksgiving, mostly by playing many games.  i hope to play many, many games in the upcoming months, and i must figure out an excellent disguise for mollie so we can walk in the mall.

ok then,

mrs. chilly hughes.
