Cold

I missed winter when I was in Moz. I dreamed about feeling cold, wearing sweaters, sleeping under mounds of blankets, eating soup on a cold day not just because that was what I made because it was an easy meal, watching the snow come down, the smell of winter when I leave a warm building in the darkness of the early evening.

Now it's winter and it's COLD. I really think our bodies adjusted some to the heat of Moz. I feel cold alot...frequently wearing 3-4 layers of clothes inside and still feeling cold.  When I go outside for a walk or to take the kids to the park, I feel the cold through my jeans, so I avoid going outside, thus feeling cooped up inside. It doesn't help that it seems like there are more cloudy days than sunny ones.

Don't get me wrong, I do not miss the heat of Moz but I miss the ease of going outside, the sunshine, seeing people on a walk, my sidewalk vendors, flowers year round, fresh bananas for snack, outdoor cafes, fresh croissants (which have nothing to do with warm weather but I miss them). Adjustments...
