I'm not a fan of either extreme, but if I was forced to pick one it would be cold. Here are a few reasons why:
- Being too cold is easier to fix than being too warm; you just put on extra clothes.
- When you're running errands and have to park far away from the door, instead of turning into a puddle of sweat walking to the entrance you're warming yourself up.
- The cold weather kills off some of the insects, and the outside allergens come to a screeching halt.
- When I leave in the morning several hours before I head to work I can put my lunch in the car and don't have to worry about keeping it cool.
- The water from the bottle in my car is always nice and chilled. Sometimes its even icy.
- In winter I can put organic things like chicken skin, meat fat, and bones in the outside trashcan and not worry about it going rancid and stinking to high heaven.
- The piece of fruit I left in the car to eat on the way home still tastes like it came straight from the refrigerator (instead of halfway cooked).

I'd pick cold, too! You can always put on another layer and have something hot to drink. Sleeping is better too...another blanket. I hate to sweat, too. ha.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE sleeping under a heavy blanket!
DeleteGood try but I'm not convinced. Except for the warm blankets.
ReplyDeleteI don't know that I'M convinced either, but I gotta keep trying :-)
DeleteWe've been hearing all the reports on TV about the record cold spells on the mainland. The wind chills are awful. I wish we could send you some of our warmth.
ReplyDeleteSome Hawaiian warmth would be great right about now.
DeleteI agree Kathy. It has been very hot here and hard to remain cool. I would prefer it to be too cold for all the reasons you state.
