Breath of Fresh Air

Isn't one of the best compliments you can receive "you are such a breath of fresh air"? Especially if you have lived in a place like LA and know the difference between fresh air and "not so fresh" air.

But today I exhaled and saw my breath--this was not a good moment! Yes it was a breath of fresh air, but all of a sudden it was the dark side of a breath of fresh air. Why you ask? BECAUSE I WAS IN MY HOUSE!!!!!



Yes, you read that right! As I was putting my mascara on this morning I breathed, a normal everyday experience, yet in a not so normal everyday experience I saw my breath. And I doubly saw it because I was looking in the mirror--as if the mirror was saying to me, "NO you did not just think you saw the breath of fresh air---you really did, the mirror does not tell a lie."



My brain could not compute it for a few seconds, but YES it is that cold in the house. And my friends told me we are only in month one of winter, so it will get colder. Yikes! Now, my good friend Chris in LA reminded me that I do still live in one of the most beautiful places in the world--and yes he is correct, but it is still COLD AS in this beautiful place!!!
