So today, on the way to class at 7am. I get into my car... which is acting, a little shaky... but you would be too if it was 14 degrees outside! That is the coldest I can ever remember in my short lifetime. It takes my car longer to warm up than usual, but i am bundled up, with me scarf, leather fluffy black Eskimo jacket, with hood on and gloves. That is a big deal for North Carolinians'!

To back up to earlier this morning, class wasn't until 9 today, so i was able to sleep in until 0630!! wow! lol, but I put on my fluffy robe, given to me by my mother a few Christmas's' ago, and my slippers, which she also got... wow she keeps me cozy! , picked up Max (my maltipoo) and go downstairs. I put on his "sleeper" as I call it, Ill have to post a picture! and let him out... he is so eager! He runs outside, I go inside and start the coffee. then, I hear a bark... but not from the back, from the front!! AH! I'm scared he is through the woods and barking at the Mastiff across the street.
I run to the front door, and luckily he is sitting in the front right near the deck. I grab him and take him inside saying "what do you think you are doing!" S comes downstairs at that time and says he probably got out because the gas man probably left the gate open. Good- don't have to worry about a huge hole under the fence.

That is my big story for the day... it is only 9:42. and i am in class... talking about hemodialysis. by the way, it's cold.
