Winter doldrums.

This is the time of year I have to dig deep to figure out how I’m going to get through the rest of the winter without driving myself insane ruminating about a springtime that seems so far out of reach.

I hate being cold more than any other human on earth! 

This year it’s a little more challenging to keep warm since my body fat is lower than it has ever been in the winter time. And it seems like it’s been an extra cold winter so far. 

Everything seems miserable in winter! Going to the grocery store, going to work, even going to the gym has an element of winter misery associated with it.

I have to put a hoodie on my top and a blanket on my bottom to eat my Halo Top. Then I sprint to my bed and quickly slip beneath our comforter and electric blanket which is on its highest heat setting. We keep our house at 74 degrees F.

I’m just glad I don’t have to wear dress-up clothes to work. I get to wear jeans, hoodies, thick socks, and heavy work boots. (I still get super cold).

Space heaters are my best friend at work. 

Only ~3.5 more months to go! Assuming that May will be tolerable.
