I’m logging on late today because we were hustling around the kitchen for breakfast. And then hustling around the apartment getting Ishu ready to go back to school today. 

The cough has not fully disappeared. But, like most kids, if we wait ’til the cough is completely gone, we’ll never end up sending him to school. 

It was 4 degrees when we left the apartment to drop him off. 

And in the negatives if you factor in the wind chill. 

YIKES.

My mom and I chatted on the phone briefly this morning. And she told me that she randomly asked her Google Home what the weather in Chicago was and when she heard it, her first thought was, “WHERE DO MY CHILDREN LIVE?”

Ha. 

California has spoiled us for sure. 

But when I took off my coat after getting back from drop-off, I felt a teeny bit proud of how we’ve adapted to the winters here. As someone who was born and brought up – and spent most of their adult life – in California, I’ve been real impressed with myself. 

All you native Midwesterners and east coasters are probs rolling your eyes at me. 

BUT I DONT CARE, IM PROUD OF MYSELF. 

Now, I’ve got some report writing, a workout class, and a lunch I didn’t have to make for myself (thanks, Mama!) on the agenda for today. 

Hope you have a good one! What’s the weather like where you’re at?!
