It’s been really cold this week. Almost as cold as it ever gets here during winter. Which might not seem that cold to some of you, but bear in mind that there is very little temperature difference between inside and outside casa az. Also, the living room heater (which is just like this bedroom one) has gone wonky and will now only work if it’s taken off the wall and placed upside down on the dining table. Go figure.

And so I am writing this from bed, wearing a t-shirt and a sweatshirt, a cardie over those and a scarf … the duvet (sweatpants and socks on under that) comes up to mid-chest, and the heater is on. But while most of me is feeling warm enough my hands are freezing, so I think I’m going to have to invest in some wooly gloves and cut the fingertips off.

Can’t imagine how I’m going to do chemo in January as the side effects include not being able to even touch anything cold (because it hurts like hell). Ah well, one day at a time…

Friday looks like it might be a nice day to go out. Pipocas and I have a date to go and see some Rodin sculptures in the Plaza Nueva around midday if I’m feeling up to a walk. She just sent me an email saying “It can’t stay this way, can it?” (referring to the cold). I sure hope not, especially with that possible long weekend in Málaga coming up…

How about you guys – are you keeping warm?
