Day 61

I am so cold. Freezing. Why do we live in this cold weather? I know nothing other than this crap in the winter for my entire life. From Cleveland to Kansas to Chicago. I have spent my winter months inside freezing my ass off. This winter so far seems to be a litter more bitter to me. Its mostly because last winter I was numb to what was going on outside because of the inner strife I was dealing with. That and the fact that we used to have Casey go to the bathroom on these pee pads in the house half of the time for the sole reason of not having to make extra trips outside. So she would go ont he pad twice a day and we would take her out three times in a day. We fazed those out completely, mostly because it was disgusting, but she needs 5 walks a day ad I am doing 4 of them usually. Leah always does the worst one, early morning when she wakes up, as as she says "that counts as two." Plus since I work from home, I have to do the day walks. I know I go through this every winter, I always talk about how we should be living in either California and Arizona. We actually were considering it a few years back, but as usual, I am all talk. I think the city gets to me in the winter too. The summers here are amazing. There is no better place to be during the summer. The problem is this city has two seasons only. Its either extremely hot or bitter cold. There is literally no in between months. I totally get the people who move out west or too the Florida and never come back. My dad used to say that he loved living in the Midwest because he "loved the changing of the seasons." That was just another example of my father putting his positive spin on yet another topic.
