My kids are all trying to talk me into taking them to the zoo later on this week but I just don’t know if I can.
I do not like being outside whenever the temperature is too cold, and even though Spring is coming, the weather is not certainly heating up all that much around here yet, and we live right by a undoubtedly sizable lake, plus the wind that blows off of the lake makes the temperature feel a lot colder than it undoubtedly is.
Whenever there is wind, it makes it even worse. It has been pretty windy the past few days, plus I am afraid that it’s going to be even windier at the zoo because it is up on the top of a hill over by the lake, then anyway, we have not even turned off our furnace for the year, so I just do not know if it’s the right time of the year to go walking around outside at the zoo. My kids, of course, do not care at all! They would go out in a blizzard if it meant that they got to see some giraffes, but kids are constantly odd like that. They don’t love the temperature or the weather or if they have access to a furnace or an air conditioning system. They just constantly want to do whatever it is that they are interested in at the moment. I certainly do not know if that’s a nice way to live at all. I mean I recognize it’s nice to not worry about things, however once in a while you need to look ahead plus make a plan. I recognize that’s what happens as you become an adult!
