Have I Mentioned I Hate January?

The latest deep freeze has settled into our bones. Even with the apartment heat working it just doesn't warm the place up enough in this cold. We're doing what we can, running space heaters in rooms where we spend most of our time and drawing curtains at night and layering up, but it just isn't sufficient in terms of the overall effect. I walk around like a zombie, my brain is stuck, and all I want to do is cocoon. Nonetheless I do have enough to keep me occupied on the job whilst working from home, and tomorrow I get to thaw out a bit during the day in the office. Of course it's the getting there that's tricky; I only hope this afternoon's snow doesn't turn into sheets of ice on the sidewalks tomorrow. Getting my cleats out just in case!
