Cabin fever is setting in! It’s days like today (Hi 10 °F / Lo 2 °F with 25 mph wind making it feel like -10 °F) that really make me antsy for the warmer weather and all that goes with it.
With all due respect to those of you who live for the cold, snowy weather, I am NOT a Winter person! But, a few weeks from now, things will be different - at least that’s what I keep telling myself!
Seriously, though, as I sit here writing this in my warm home, there are many people who simply cannot afford the cost of keeping warm. Fortunately, here in Michigan, there is an organization called THAW (The Heat And Warmth fund) that works to help those who would otherwise have to choose between food and heat, possibly even resorting to dangerous ways of heating their living space. THAW is an independent non-profit agency that provides low-income individuals and families with emergency energy assistance and advocates for long-term solutions to energy issues. You can make a difference. If you would like to make a tax-deductible donation to THAW, go HERE.
Stay warm, people! Spring’s around the corner…
