welcome to the land of zero degrees

Local Utahans tell me that this weather is not normal {I don't believe them}. It's been zero degrees {literally} this entire week. As you can imagine, I have very little motivation to get out of bed in the morning, let alone walk outside. You could say that this past weekend consisted of Brad and I being nothing but hermits. It's beautiful, but freezing. So so so cold. When we got back from California, our car was completely frozen over, which led to a battle between my husband, the weather, and our frost bitten car. Eventually we got the doors open, now getting the gas door open was a completely different story that involved a knife, warm water, and lots of embarrassing mumbling under my breath. These days I am so thankful for a warm apartment, warm water, warm clothes, pretty much anything with the word warm before it. I can't imagine being without in these weather conditions. The only thing that sounds good these days is a book, coffee, and my warmest blanket. As a matter of fact, I think I have a date with those three things after work.
