desperate times...

call for desperate measures... it's true...

our desperate times include a plethora of things:

1. no shower or bathtub with plumbing
2. no heat
3. no insulation
4. exposed walls

So what exactly are my desperate measures. Onsies. Yes, what started as a joke has now become my only hope to not freeze as I brave the tundra that is our house. I purchased my lime green with orange and red dinosaur print onsies (complete with feet) at Target a few years back as part of a Halloween costume. At that time, and not too different from most of the time, I was the youngest of all the people at my workplace. I decided after countless "baby" jokes, I would indeed show up to work on Halloween in footsy pajamas and a pacifire on a string around my neck. What started out as comic relief has now become my sole source of warmth. Without heat or insulation, and with several exposed walls and no way to take a shower to warm up, I faithfully step into and zip up my footsy pjs nightly.

I will only leave you proof of this in the form of the picture of my feet below. Some of you have yet to meet me in person and I knew that if I posted a full picture of the pjs there might be no chance of ever having a respectable conversation with me, or at the very least, make it a bit harder.
