It's Cold!

On Friday evening we had a bunch of formers to stop by and see how they were doing.  We, of course, had dinner from 5-6 before we left.  We had taco salad and used some ground beef that a member gave us.  But at our first stop by they let us in and we talked for a minute and then they said: "have you had dinner yet?"  We said, "yes but we could sit down and have a little"  trying to be polite.  Anyway, they didn't hear that we had already had dinner because they sat us down behind a big bowl of ravioli and a big old salad.  Fortunately, though somehow I ate it all and didn't die even though a couple of times I thought I was going to because I was so full.

We have to run the heater in our apartment so much because of how cold it is.  Because of that, the air can get really dry.  On Saturday morning it was especially bad so I put 2 giant pots of water on the stove on high and went upstairs to do companionship study.  When we got done and came back down it was like someone had showered and didn't turn on the fan.  The walls were running because there was so much moisture.  There were pools of water at the bottom of the windows.  To add to it when we opened the door to go outside it was like a steam machine.  The moment you opened the door steam just pored out of our apartment.  We learned our lesson to only boil a small pot and watch that pot while you are boiling it.
