Weather within the next few days is expected to reach the seventies every day. Halleluiah! At last I won’t have to put on multiple levels of clothing just to get by. Summer will begin next month, and I can start dressing normally again.
Yeah, I know. I’m a hopeless misfit. But ever since my years in the tropics, I haven’t adjusted back to the U.S. climate and dislike cool weather. Winter for me is a time of shuddering. I’m not worried about being too warm. I don’t even remember the last time that happened. So I stay bundled up until everyone else is complaining about the heat.
All that means that my heating bills in the fall, winter, and spring are way above those of others. But my air conditioning costs in the summer are far lower than anyone else’s.
My time is coming. I can hardly wait.
