70 versus 17…
Last Friday seventy,
This morning seventeen,
Below zero wind chills,
Even Rufuz does not think it keen…
Tis’ cold in our home,
But old Rufuz and I will survive,
Till the spring time warmth does arrive,
We have little choice; we cannot roam…
We pass through this life, it is said, but once,
We are here to experience all it has to offer,
If I were to live where it is only warm,
I would then have to think of myself as a dunce,
If I can make it through one winter of snow and ice,
Then the next winter of only cold would be just nice…

(Em... 'we pass through this life but once?' hmmmmm... I wish they would have mentioned that... must be in the small print, eh?) Ah, well... I love your mind. katy xox.
Yes we are, Sir, so suck it up - breathe in that 17 Degree Air - take Rufuz for a long long walk in the woods - and freeze your fanny off!!
