   YEah I know, yesterday afternoon, we took kathy to pt, I   
   wore a sweatshirt.  ON the way home I was able to remove it. I've left windows   
   open, last night i just threw a comforter   
   on the bed over us.  Today, grocery store and storage unit   
   run, again I'm in short sleeves and sandals.  At least,   
   after I left storage unit i"m in sandals.  Moving stuff   
   around storage I was wearing regular shoes to keep feet safe in case I got   
   stupid dropping something.   
      
   My mom in the midwest says the plants up there are sure   
   confused by all this,  and starting to do the spring thing   
   already.  We're officially into springtime so maybe we won't get anything   
   that'll shock the plant life.   
      
   Regards,   
              Richard
