Braving the cold...

I did not sleep well last night and got up with brain fog at about 6am. I checked the temperature- it was -6 degrees! Despite the cold, it has been a fairly good day. The sun is shining and the sky is blue! My kitchen trash "runneth over," and so, being mindful of Cynthia Stout, I took my garbage out. I also retrieved the mail and started my car. It started without difficulty, -amazing as it has been sitting for several days in bitter cold. I had a nice chat with ME this morning and with Charlie this afternoon. Now, I need to get Aunt MJ on the phone and see how she is doing. Today I am making a pot of chile for supper. That ought to warm me up a bit!
