December 3--Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Blah Blah Blah

Let it snow somewhere else.  --On my "Life is Good" shirt featuring Winnie the Pooh and Piglet lying in a hammock under a palm tree

    It started snowing very early Tuesday morning. My niece's hopes of a "snow day" from school came to fruition. First looks outside around sunrise revealed a heavy snow downpour and already more snow than I cared to clear from my vehicle. It was a "hunker down" day. 

    So many of us, me included, were raised to be a "human doing" rather than a "human being," measuring our worth by how many items we check off our to-do list. So a "snow day" leads to the question, "What am I going to do all day!?!?!" I can happily report that we worked out (my niece drove, so I got to swim), played games, ate leftovers, napped, and enjoyed the extra bit of time together because the snow cancelled school. We had a lovely Italian dinner out with a friend. Little was "accomplished," much was enjoyed.

    Here's something fun to play with... what if snow was some color other than white (or yellow!!)?
