It's Friggin' Cold

We are in the middle of an arctic chill here in the great white north. With the wind chill factored in, it feels like it's -30 C or even colder and I'm getting a little cranky. So, in order to cheer myself up, I thought I'd come up with 10 things that I'm thankful for.

1. Unlike Dixie the dog, I'm grateful that I can do my business indoors.
2. The parking pay stations that were installed downtown last year don't work when it's cold. I parked for free twice last week and saved myself two dollars!
3. Triple pane windows
4. Slippers
5. Comfort food
6. Long johns
7. Moisture wicking clothing (we had our first outdoor cross country skiing class last night)
8. Wine-warms my feet like nothing else
9. The sun
10. A car with a good heating system
