Hello, and welcome to the 2nd installment of the Wednesday rant. I'm not sure about the rest of the country, but Tennessee has been experiencing some very mild temperatures for this time of year. Temperatures have stayed in the high 70's to the lower 80's with mostly sunny skies, and people are loving it. Most people, not me. Let me explain.
These perfect days make me extremely lazy. Every time I go outside now, I just want to lay down in the grass and take a nap. When I'm not outside, I'm looking out the window wanting to be outside. Trips to the mailbox take me twice as long as they used to. Everything I do, I do slower because of the weather.
The other problem I'm having is a major one. And it's something I had forgotten about over the summer. The colder it is outside in the mornings, the less I want to get up. There is a direct correlation between the temperature outside, and how long it takes me to get up. For example, when it's in the 70's, it takes me less than a minute to get out of bed. Now that it's in the 50's each morning, it's taking me close to 5 minutes to get up. My wife even made me get out of bed first this morning, so I could turn off the fan. Can you imagine how long it will take me this winter, when the temperatures are in the 30's or even lower. I'm gonna have to set my alarm for 30 minutes earlier, just to make sure I make it to work on time.
Tell me I'm not the only one who feels this way. How are you handling the changes in the weather?
