Cold?

 It's colder outside than it had been the last weeks, and the temperature inside the house went down, too. A sure sign that our windows aren't up-to-date anymore and need to get replaced. What, if we get down to minus ten or twenty even? I dressed in the sweater hubby gave me for Christmas and did a thorough cleaning of the first floor, bringing the Christmas decoration, no, not down, but back to its former glory- Alice was coming for a visit. She was one of the first students I ever had, and she wanted to see this year's decorating. She has no family of her own save for her parents. But she loves to hear tales about mine. Alice just left our house, and I am done with the day. This lady is talking way too much and way too fast. At least, she still is in contact with some other students of mine and wants to organise a reunion- at our house. Please, wish me luck that this won't happen. Alice alone is a task to behold...
