| BC ~ “January is the worst month. I am fat and broke from the holidays, paler than ever, and I can’t feel my own face when I walk outside.” Anonymous Sometimes I wonder if, living in warmer climates actually make the frigid cold, when it Does arrive...so much more difficult to bear, than for those who revel in the climates where extreme winter weather is nothing more than a walk in the park. With snowshoes...of course! I will share that, even in the south where I reside, winter comes angrily banging upon the door, usually unannounced and unwanted, and yes...during these times, coupled with activiites that force me outside to dwell alongside it...I quickly lose feeling in my face, hands, and feet. Because, you know, those of us in the south do not Know How to dress for the cold, nor do we have the Proper Attire! I cannot completely blame the fat on the holidays; more a lifestyle change that needs to be made. Although, once adding more protein to my diet, less snacking has been a benefit. This has caused me to lose ten pounds. Once the holidays arrived, along with all of the goodies between Thanksgiving and Christmas...I put that ten pounds (at least) back on, according to how my clothes fit. I am not quite ready to have an Argument (that I am set to lose), with my scale. Being Broke...isn't that just a Normal state of being? No?  I rarely spend more than I am able over the holidays. This year, it was more serious issues that Had to be taken care of for a family member, and since I am not one who has thousands of dollars saved up for said emergencies (that would be my husband...who did cover Half of this emergency) what I offered to assist with went on credit cards. Paler than ever. Well...my legs seem to Stay that way, once the tan of summer waves goodbye, and that never seems to take long. I have an olive-ish complexion to my skin, which somewhat shows on my face, definitely does on my arms. My legs look like they belong on a completely different body when they are not tanned. This tanning happens just from doing jobs in my yard, or reading out in the sun. How I Miss summer already.  |
