Cold Feet
This winter I'm keeping my feet warm! With the temperatures in the North Country hovering in the zero range lately, I'm finally taking my mom's advice: Keep your feet warm. Mom has always had this theory that the best way to catch the flu bug is to wear thin socks in the wintertime. I'm not messing around anymore! Year after year I've been hit with what always seems more than my fair share of flu bugs. Not this year. A few weeks ago I went to a local store and bought four pairs of heavy woolen socks. Problem is they are all the same color, same design, so anyone noticing my socks this winter will think I am wearing the same pair of socks all winter. I'm not! But I don't care! Let them think what they will! I'm just wondering if Mom's advice is based on scientific fact. Nevertheless, she's finally made a believer out of me. I intend to breeze (or freeze?) through this winter with warm feet ... and not even a sniffle! I'll keep you posted!

I think mothers everywhere will agree- it is always best to buy multiple pairs of socks in the same size and color, so if any are lost, misplaced, or get holey, you can still make pairs. So this mom says you got it dead right!
