Box O Clothes

Let me throw some numbers at you. 48, 52, 47, 49, 51. There ya go. Add in wind and rain to that mix and you have the weather from the past week in Cleveland, Ohio. Pretty chilly, especially when you consider the temperature dropped from the mid 70's the week prior.
This doesn't bode well with me, as I moved here in the summer and only brought summer clothes. Besides a few pairs of jeans, I only have capris and shorts. The only non-open shoes I have here are sneakers. You can blame it on my inability to plan ahead, or my denial that cold weather is ahead. Either way you look at it, I am completely unprepared for what lies ahead.

After talking to my mother, she has packed me a box filled with some heavier clothing. Some long pants, some sweaters, and a North Face. Perfect for the time being. However, the extended forecast is filled with mid to high 70's now. Seems as though mom is a little late on this one!
My box should arrive Saturday. That's my guess. I am also wondering if my mother packed the right clothes. She hasn't seen me in well over a month now (the longest stretch I have not seen her), and Jeff and I haven't been just making chocolate pizzas. We've been eating them too! 
I hope she didn't sent the wider pants, as those chocolate pizzas have not been feeding the hungry in Somalia, they've been feeding my hips!
