Carpe diem
It is precious Sunday and I have been having a brilliant invigorating time with my 3 year old son in the snow. It takes us at least 20 minutes to tog up to go out. Firsty there is the thermal vest and long johns, socks tucked over the top then trousers then waterproof over trousers. As many layers as possible under a thick jacket. Then there is the elastic that needs to go over my sons boots, gloves and hat to finish. Then its my turn.
It is all worth it because we have had such fun on a big empty horse feed sack and a small plastic sledge plus a hill. This weather does put some people out but I refuse to get put out by it. I rather make good use of the extra time I have at home plotting and planning my year and the extra time indoors cosy by a big roaring fire feeling the warmth of all my hard efforts collecting, chopping and stacking the wood we burn.
