Hibernation

It's that time again. 

Winter. 

Yuck.  I don't like winter, although so far, this winter has been incredibly mild.  Tomorrow the high is forecast to be 55, which will be close to record warmth for January 10th.

But even though the weather has been uncharacteristically balmy, I still feel an almost primal urge to hole up in my house, drink cup after cup of hot tea, and sleep for hours on end.  Last night I didn't sleep very well, but even so, I managed to sleep off and on for ten hours.  I probably could have rolled over and slept for another hour or so but I needed to use the bathroom and I couldn't quite justify climbing back into bed once I'd drug myself out.  : /

Saturday G leaves for a week in Orlando.  If it weren't for a family event at his mom's on Saturday and Bible study on Wednesday, I would probably go the entire week without ever leaving my house.  As long as I have an adequate supply of Constant Comment decaf tea, I could avoid the great outdoors for quite some time.  : )
