so old, so cold.....

ok, so...the temperature was 34 degrees as i slid outside to get the newspaper while the coffee brewed.....the high may hit the fifties, but this 34 degree stuff has already gotten old.....we have gone european, with a twin-size down duvet sitting on top of our green duvet, which covers a blanket rather than the old down comforter.....which is so heavy as to be unwieldy.....this twin down thing was in a closet, and is very light and easy to kick off if one gets too hot.....ah, the joys of menopause.....must be ready for the entire range of temps.....though when we put on the flannel sheets the bed will transform into near-womb conditions....i might not be able to drag myself out of bed for the duration......
