We live in the south... some people say it isn't the south... that we're midwest (BTW- that's WRONG)... but we live in the south. In the south, climates are generally warmer year round. Though, one of the things that I've always loved about Tennessee is that there are still very distinct seasons here (usually). I've lived here in the winter when it's snowed (more than a dusting), I've lived here in the fall when the leaves fall and there are crisp temps, I've lived here in the summer when its blazing hot, and also in the spring when its warm during the day and the flowers start blooming in March. But, COME ON! I recently read that this is the mildest winter middle Tennessee has had in a decade. It would figure that the first winter we move here... its 70 in FEBRUARY. It's crazy. I'm certainly not used to this and I don't know what to make of it. Up in Baltimore, if we had a warm day or two in the middle or late winter... we know to expect a quick cold snap and usually some true winter weather. I don't know. It may take me a few years to get used to the 100 degree summer days when there are few or no 30 degree winter days. I guess I need to go get a pedicure. :-/
So, on a random note: I've fallen in love with a new (to me) musician. His name? Robert Pattinson. Yes, yes... he's more well known as Edward from the Twilight movie series. BUT... he's an excellent musician. His voice is like velvet... bluesy similar to Ray Lamontagne... but not as thick. I'm attaching a song of his that I LOVE... listen and don't judge. He's fantastic!

TODAY- I started level Three of Jillian's 30 day shred. I HATE her! I was so beat up by this level that I continued to sweat for over 90 minutes AFTER I completed her 25 minute workout. I'm expecting GREAT things from this. We'll see...
