    Oh, and boiled wool mittens are the key to warm hands in freezing temperatures.

    Oh I can imagine!! We live in Weatern Ky and I have sat in the bleachers while the boys play baseball when it’s 30* outside (sometimes colder)!!! Last year I bought a Buddy Heater (small propane heater) because it was snowing and suddenly I became the popular parent because they all wanted a piece of the heat. Lol... and I may or may not have burned a couple of quilts. 😜

    Surprise 60th birthday gift from hubby. I picked the right guy back in the high school band room. Hamilton was everything I dreamed of, amazing! Looking forward to it being less popular and seeing it again.

    My daughter has the soundtrack and it is on constantly in my home. I would love to take her but the prices have to come down. She is totally into musicals.

    I love Broadway almost as much as I love mountains. Hamilton is going on tour next year, the prices should come down. Saw Waitress last week and loved that too.

    Google them. I think they boil the wool before making the mittens, making them almost waterproof and really warm. I'm from Wisconsin where people need to know these things.

Yeah stupid I know but not only does the body change I have to have my mind to change too or I will freeze to death! The next day I did suck it up and wear my jacket that is 2 sizes to big because it is the only one I have.
    Time to buy a new jacket (or two, or three)! I love my Land's End down jacket, they often have sales for half off. Then I also have a dressy Land's End wool coat, along with a few cute Costco jackets. And don't even get me started on my down vest wardrobe...
