On thermometers and Eleanor Roosevelt

Today I woke up to this outside my window. A whoopin' -4F! I'm scared to go out, and I will do so, just to start getting over the fear of cold temperatures. Just like Eleanor Roosevelt said, "You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face... do the thing you think you cannot do." I should add that aside from gaining strength, courage, and confidence, I also gain resistance to cold weather in this particular case.

So, I'm getting my gear together and going to the post office to send the journal along, in case we also want to continue with that :) Wish me luck!
