Must be nice living in CA. I have the exact same addiction as you except I live in Omaha. [:@]
I have been taking my electric's out when it's 5 degrees & my fingers would get so numb I could barely land.

I offered up a gallon of fuel to the instructors at my local club & one met me on a couple days that were above freezing. I solo'd after 2 "lessons" & have been flying my nexstar every day I think I can get my engine started.

Today it was up to 45 (heat wave) but we had 20mph winds. Guess where I was... You got it, at the club slow flying the nexstar. (& it came home in one piece)

I'm putting the finishing touches on my Sig Somethin Extra & can't wait for a nice day to maiden it. I hope I don't have to wait a few months!!! [:'(]

The first step to any addiction is admitting that you have an addiction...
