You go into January.

It's, what, two below right now?

Hi today.

Yeah, it's pretty cold out there.

My dog likes to kind of take laps around this park that we live next to,

even with the like light snow and

it's chilly times she still likes to like you know take an adventure and it's like you just need to go

to the bathroom quick let's you know right it's so cool that even yesterday and into this morning

she kind of takes her few steps and it's like damn yeah let's get back inside we got to go baby

we got to go hey look what I didn't even know she did this but I got to show you guys Yeah, let's get back inside. We gotta go, baby. We gotta go.

That's one thing I will tell you honestly God. I adore my wife because we've been, well, geez, we've been together forever and ever and ever. But I really feel sorry for people that, you know, can't find that good relationship.

Some people never do find that good relationship for themselves.
