How a Boiler Made My Day Amazing

If you saw the post previous to this one, you know that it was a tid bit chilly in SoDak today.  I don't want to complain about the 30 and 40 degree weather too much....I know the -30 and -40 degree days are not too far off.  However, my classroom is at the very end of our building.  It's all by its lonesome, so when it's cold outside, it is also very cold in my classroom.  I came into my classroom this morning and looked at my thermostat.  61 degrees.  Ah, really?  My circulation is already terrible, so I'm usually quite chilly in any temps below 80 degrees. (Some of you may be scratching your head and asking yourself, "So why does this crazy girl live in SoDak if she can't stand the cold?"  Answer: I don't really know.)  Anyway, I was wearing a sweater and had a jacket on over that, and my fingers were still blue.  Naturally, I wasn't in the best of moods, even after jamming out to music.  And then....at about 11:00 this morning, the boiler kicked in and I had HEAT.  TA DA!  Day made perfect.

On a health note, I am working a bit on "damage control" from this past weekend.  My husband and I went out for a fancy dinner for our anniversary that was in June.  I know....JUNE!  Better late than never, though.  I ordered salmon with asparagus, but the desert is what got me.  I'm definitely back on the healthy path this week and will hopefully have update photos to show before long.
