Bad News

OK, it has happened. I swore it never would but it has. And now all of you will mock me just as I used to mock those like me. Yes, that's right, I have become a cold weather wimp!! It has been chilly here the past week or so. I have put away my shorts and pulled out the jeans. At night we sit in sweats cuddled up in blankets to watch movies. I even looked out today at the tourists around the pool and commented that it was really too cold to swim. What is the temperature, you ask? Well, I'm not sure I want to tell you. Suffice it to say that it has yet to fall below 22 at night and during the day it's at least 5 degrees warmer. I am hanging my head in shame. Yesterday we went snorkeling and I was actually huddled up with my arms across my body as I was snorkeling because I was so cold. I could only stay in for about 1/2 an hour. Then I went back to the boat, changed into my dry clothes and sat in the sun to warm up. I don't know the conversion but the water was reading a temperature of 85 degrees F. I can't even imagine the teasing I am going to take when we get back to Canada and I break out my parka at temperatures above zero. I feel somehow that I have failed my sturdy Canadian upbringing. Sorry this post is a little short. My fingers are turning blue and seizing up. I need to go turn off the fan above my head. Stay warm!
