Despite the fact

~ that it is a bright and sunshiny day I will not be going out for a walk today because it is 31º with NW winds blowing at 24 mph.

~ that my 8+ year old computer is acting wonky and being uncooperative, and that there is money in the bank to cover it, I will not be buying a new computer until the tax refund is received. (And let's hope the refund comes in before the computer dies altogether.)

~ that I consciously count my blessings every day, inside my head I am silently whinging about almost everything.

~ that you can take the girl out of NYC but can't take the NYC out of the girl, I just used a Britishism, whinge, instead of a Yiddishism, kvetch.
