We woke this morning to a mantle of white. Just a nice covering of snow that fell sometime during the night. Now the sun is out and its blindingly bright and white. We have hunkered down and are curled in front of the TV.
I’ve been struck down with a mild cold. Nothing major, just draining. I planned it just right because I hit me on Sat so I could hand the kids off to Kevin and curl up with a good book. Or two. Or eight. It drives Kevin crazy how fast I can read and when in formed in Sunday night that I had polished off eight books this weekend he was not impressed. Disgusted is more like it! Since my nose was firmly planted in a book, I have no idea what Kevin did with the girls over the weekend. Being sick is, however, getting easier. Now the girls understand what “sick” is and I can shoo them away from me. I remember all too well being horribly sick when they were little and having to drag myself around and take care of them when all I wanted to do was curl up and pass out. Now it’s hello tv, goodbye kids!
So today we are staying home and watching the snow melt. Not a bad way to start the week really.

Thanks for the stash coming my way, Chrissie! I’m sad to hear you’re letting go of the knitting, but since that’s the extent of my craftiness, as opposed to a small little part of all of your craftiness, I understand. I can’t wait for the postman to deliver it…I’m looking forward to the fix I get. I hope you’re feeling better and enjoying the winter weather. Maybe by now it’s back to the gray and the rain for you all!
