Bitter Over the Cold

Mrs. Nurse Boy here.

The other day when we were out in the cold running errands, Bruiser asked me a question. With a very serious face and tone of voice he says,

"Mom, did Satan make cold weather?"

Hmmm....

Why, yes, come to think of it, I think he did. He enjoys it when we experience what it is like to be a piece of meat left in the freezer, spend countless hours hunting down matching pairs of mittens and gloves, and waste our money on winter boots that no one wants to wear. He loves to see us wrap up our little ones in layer after layer of clothing only to hear the dreaded words, "I have to go to the bathroom!" And, how about all the time we spend in the bitter cold scraping our windows and warming up our cars?

I am with Bruiser. I hate the cold. It must have been invented by Satan himself.

I am holding out that Nurse Boy is going to afford us a winter home in Florida in the near future.

I like to dream BIG...

That's what you hear people say "We had one (satanic dominion) of a snowstorm last night" or "The roads look like (satanic dominion).

Funny I've always associated the horned one with heat but come to think of it I swear I've searched hells-half-acre for the missing half of seven pairs of gloves every year for a long time...Bruiser I think you're right.
