It's Cold In The "T"

Bundle up my friends


The other day I was eating a meal with one of my friends and she brought up an interesting topic of how people become overly dramatic . She said "Why do people say they hate winter because of how cold it is?".  As she spoke I realized, I was one of those people. I listened, not saying a word. "Just wear a winter coat, button it up, wear a hat, put on your gloves and a scarf" she said. Well sure, I do on occasion, in the winter, wear my light weight coat, unbuttoned, without gloves, no hat or scarf, all the while complaining about how cold it is. Instead of admitting to this at that very moment I would try her advice then come clean. The next time I went outside, I buttoned up my winter coat, wrapped a scarf around my neck, put on a pair of gloves and out the door I went.
Of course she was right, I was much warmer. It was making this cold weather more bearable. What she said was common sense, dress for the weather.  So bundle up my friends because it is cold outside! Now to find a cute winter hat to match the rest of my warm winter outfit.
