7. I wish I had a garage.

I do have a storage unit a couple miles away where I usually keep my Toyota, but I've had it out since it is now designated the winter vehicle because of the clearance and standard trans and braking systems. Runs on cheap gas too, unlike the other one that requires premium. I love that thing.

It's going to be into the subzero temps tomorrow and into Monday morning. I go to a friend's on Sunday afternoon/evenings to make dinner and play games. They have a wood stove so I plan on having a cozy time there for a good part of the chill time. It's only 3/4 of a mile there so I don't really count it as "going out".

I do have to clear my porch and walkway but I'll wait until the drifting is over, there's always one at the bottom of the steps.

At least it looks like winter around here again. It gets kind of stressful when the season is off.
