January Plans

Next week is pay day. I've already begun to make out the checks for bills. I will get them in the mail early because of the holiday on the 1st. Vacation ends on the 5th. I have a doctor's appointment on the 6th. As of now I'm scheduled to work for half a day on the 9th and am hoping that I get something for the 8th as well. As long as I can stay healthy, I'll try to work for at least 3 days a week through the winter months. If It's an exceptionally good work week, I'll work for 4 or 5 days. I have to "Strike while the iron's hot" so to speak. When the warm weather comes I'll want to play golf or be out and about with friends.
I'm wondering how cold a winter we will have this January and February. We had a couple of really brutally cold days before Christmas which is unusual for us. I remember cold days like that in December when I was a young child and a teenager. Winter is easier to get through when the days aren't bitterly cold. However, I'd prefer the cold to icy, crusty, snowfalls which are very deep and hard to get around in. I guess I minded the last freeze we had because of my bad cold. I've learned to dress warm, in layers, and to wear a hat and gloves. This too shall pass, as they say.
