Second Winter
The backyard is not yet ready for Blue.
I’m still taking her to the dog park several times a day.
And I’ve noticed that we have experienced all the seasons in just this week alone.
We’ve had lovely Early Spring weather in the 70s.
Followed by sweltering Fake Summer heat in the 90s.
Today we’re back to Second Winter in the 40s.
I bundled up to go to the dog park this morning.
Turtleneck, hoodie, hat, mittens, boots, and big jacket.
I debated wearing my parka.
But I thought that maybe I would be too hot.
It turns out that I froze my a$$ off.
Literally.
The parka is long and goes down to my knees.
My backside would have been much warmer in that.
Maybe tomorrow I’ll wear the parka.
Although, with my luck, tomorrow will be Fake Summer again, and I’ll be too hot.
Soon enough it will be Real Summer, and the weather will be predictably hot.
I guess I should just be grateful for the cool weather while I’ve got it.
