I will not catch a cold by going outside without my coat on!
I do not want to hear it again. I dart in and out of the house 4 times a day managing the preschool bus pick ups and drop offs. If I took the time to bundle up every time, you would write me up for being too slow getting my kid off the bus. The bus is parked 25 feet from my front door. I run out, hop on your over-heated bus, grab my kid, and run back inside. I do not need a coat for that. There are so many other stupid things we could make small talk about. Can we move past me and my unwillingness to wear a coat?

Ahh! I know exactly what you mean! When I walk out of the gym (my car is less than 50 feet away, mind you) I always receive a chorus of comments such as :”You’ll catch pneumonia if you don’t put that jacket on!” “You’ll be coming down with a cold before you know it!” No, I won’t, the only thing that WILL happen is that I will have a heat stroke if I put that jacket on after running for an hour. It’s so irritating!
