I think I can now say that I’m getting used to the Minnesota weather in the winter. On Sunday, Rosanna and I were heading back from a marriage retreat with our church, and after getting out of the car, I sighed and said, “Boy, it sure does feel nice outside today!” I genuinely felt good and could have gone for a walk.
Turns out that it was around 20 degrees.
That’s what happens when you’ve been in negative teens weather for the past three weeks or so. Honestly, I just like it when it’s 20 degrees because my windows don’t ice up… from the inside.
I’ll continue working on this northern thing, though I will always be an Okie on the inside.
