Let it snow. That’s what we say in schools where an inch of snow shuts down our school system. It seems immature, for sure.
I can’t explain the joy of the first snow day. The inner child gleefully embraces the stolen time off. I go back to bed while my husband readies himself for his work. A couple hours later I go downstairs to find pure daylight and read the morning paper. I don’t just read the news section but take in the style, metro, and business sections as well. Then I consider the possibilities. A walk to the gym for a weekday morning workout? Go to the neighborhood cafe for some cuppa and a good book? Clean the house? Call my mom? The possibilities are limitless.
We spent six days off last week, two for a weekend, one for a holiday, and three because of snow and ice. I couldn’t bring myself to come to the blog. Forgive my absence. I’m back, for now. Unless it snows again tomorrow… there’s a threat of the scary “wintry mix.”
