ON THE BACK BURNER

It is nasty cold here. It isn't supposed to get this cold in PT. I am see ing people draping their plants with sheets. I've been here for three winters and I have not seen this happen. My son turned on the electric thing-y that keeps my pipes from freezing. I don't think that it has ever been on before. Dixie will wear two sweaters on her walk and I am going to look for my scarf. I am taking my son to lunch today as a thank you for getting my propane tank filled. That's a ritual that we have. So far, in the years that I have been here, we have eaten indoors only once that I can remember. Being outside, even sitting in a car is so special because where ever you look, there is a view., but today , we are eating inside today. Maybe this is the right time for me to het back to Venice. Baby,it's cold outside.

Don't quite know how this got to me but it was on the top line of my computer (not in email) But I really enjoyed it. I truly admire you.
