The other day I told you I had brought my down coat to the cleaner, and today, I picked it up again. Not quite as clean as I had expected it to be, but it certainly will keep me warm. And now that I have finished washing all my other warm winter stuff, I’m ready to face whatever cold may come. Of course, I hope that this winter that cold may also bring lots of snow, since we hadn’t had a really snowy winter in a long time. But only time can tell what will happen. Until then I’m content with knowing that this winter at least I’ll be warm and cozy!
