Whether to weather the weather

I didn't used to ever listen to the weather forecast to plan my day, but something about living in a new place where I don't know what to expect season to season, has me checking the weather on my igoogle page frequently. Part of it is due to my fear of the winter. I am afraid that it is going to get so cold that I can't go outside and then I will get fat. So like on November 7 when I was so excited that the temperatures were going to be in the 70's that I just had to go to the park with my kids, this morning when I found out it was 59 I just had to walk Ariel to school instead of driving her. It was drizzling a little, but it was so balmy that it didn't bother me at first, although by the time we got to her school it was starting to really come down and by the time we got back home we were drenched. I still don't regret taking all my kids out in the rain because it felt warn and refreshing and when I got on the scale, I was 2 pounds lighter than I was yesterday (with wet hair mind you). That makes 13 pounds lighter than I was when we moved here and the lightest I have been since Dallin was born. Hooray! Yay for warm winter weather and whittling away my waistline. (Hows that for alliteration?)
