Self Portrait Sunday for December 7, 2008
I don’t need my thick, fluffy robe very often, but when I do I’m very grateful for the friend who gave me such a thoughful gift. The robe has been getting a real workout for the last week or so. I put it on the minute I get out of bed and sometimes put it back on after my shower (as I did a little while ago.) I also wear it in the evening as I’m watching TV or putzing around the house. Right now it’s 7:30 a.m. and the day is finally starting to warm up. Current temp is (checking my AccuWeather) 65 degrees, with a “real feel” of 63. I’m feeling coniderably warmer than I did a few hours ago when I got up, so I suppose it must have been as low as sixty (or even lower?) before the sun began to rise. I need to go to Home Depot in a while to pick up the floor covering for the kitchen and dining room, but I’ll wait until I warm up so I can wear practical clothes. (If I dress appropriately for the current chill I’ll be sweat-soaked while loading supplies into the car.) When I get back I’ll try to finish packing up my room so I can shift the furniture around and begin painting and flooring in there. I’m actually believing that Paul will finish the cabinets any day now, so, with supplies on hand, I’ll be able to install the floors in the front rooms this week and the big jobs will mostly be finished. I bought ribs yesterday & will do some healthy grilling when I break for lunch. Between the good food and the satisfaction of seeing new tasks finished I’m expecting it to be a pretty good day.
Cass doesn’t have a Self Portrait Sunday post up yet, but it’s early. Go visit her later today & see who else smiled for the camera this week!

You look cozy, but I have a hard time feeling sorry for you… it’s 19, “feels like” 12 here! We’d be dancing in the streets for 60 degrees.

I like your robe, you look very comfy in it. I would be happy to have 60 degrees, it’s been in the twenties here in the mornings. And today it has been a lot warmer but it has rained all day.

We can’t dance in the street because we’re having street flooding now, Jennifer - but, yeah, my “winter weather” is generally a bit milder than yours. :d

It’s a really comfy, cozy robe, Donna. I only get to wear it a few days during winter, so I decided to memorialize it in a post, lol!
