WINTER EDITION: how to not hate going outside

It doesn’t need to be hard. And, I have always made it HARD. I usto think I would just run out to the coop, feed the ladies, flip the water, toss out some treats and be back in the confines of my cozy house in 5 minutes flat, or less which, I think is faster than most ambulances, isn’t it? But here’s the thing. It Never Worked out as I planned ….never 5 minutes. Why?
