The winter blues

Winter has hit Chicago in full force and needless to say...it's frickin' cold!

Every year around this time my winter blues set in. I have gained my typical holiday 5 pounds and all I want to do is hibernate until Spring. I do reluctantly drag myself to the gym but it's a mental fight.

I could easily bundle up, bundle up the kiddo, and go out for errands or just to get out of the house. But then I look outside and think 'it's so much warmer here inside'. So heat usually wins!

It's common for everyone around here. You see less of people in general during winter. Once Spring arrives people sprout out from everywhere...like we have all been in hibernation. 

I'm already looking forward to Spring but in the mean time I'll be here...hibernating and staying warm!

Man, I'm with you.

My husband was leaving this morning and snarkily (word?) said, "So, let me guess. You and B aren't going anywhere today?"

Um, no. It's warm inside. Why would I go outside? I might get the mail, but that's about all I can handle. It's so much harder bundling up a little one and braving the cold, too.
