365: Outbreak--Flu or Oaks?

I'm feeling like shit on a shoe. I can't tell if it's the outbreak of poison oak or if I'm coming down with a cold or flu. The past few times I've had an oak outbreak I've felt like doodoo for the first 24-36 hours while my skins and immune system kick into overdrive. I hope that's it but just in case I'm loading up on zinc and vitamin C. We'll see how I feel in the morning.

365: FROST!

EEP! We woke up this morning and there was FROST on the grass on the hill behind the house! It wasn't anywhere else (this is the shadiest part of the house) but STILL! It was enough to make me die a little on the inside. Allegedly there's a cold front moving down from Canada and it's supposed to be even chillier tomorrow. The high in Forest Ranch is only 45! I guess this is good considering we'll be in Indiana in exactly two weeks. Help us grow some hair on our chests or something...

365: Winter Lindsay

Any time it drops below 50 degrees I feel the need to bundle up like Nanook of the North (see picture). I am glad I live in California instead of Indiana as this greatly reduces the amount of time I'll spend freezing this winter, but it does still fall below 50 here (especially in the canyon) late at night through early morning. Luckily I have my trusty rusty marshmallow jacket and faboo sparkly hat to keep me warm when we take the doggies out.

In my continuing transformation to African...

Dear Cold Dreary Winter,

I hate your guts. Please leave my life forever. I never want to see you again. I'm tired of always being the one who's freezing to death; I don't think I've felt my feet in 3 months. I won't miss you. You are like a bad case of herpes that always comes back no matter how much you wish it would just be over forever.

KThxBai,

Lindsay
