Snow Days

I have a lot of negative thoughts about snow, but it's important to acknowledge the positives too...like snow days. Whether you're a kid going to school or an adult going to work, it's wonderful to wake up in your pajamas, take one look at the thick, heavy snowflakes piling up outside the window and understand that your pajamas are staying on all day.

As a kid, my mom would have my sister and I bake a cake or bake brownies on snow days. Today, Tommie and I took the time to make breakfast. Meanwhile, the animals of the household, Dusty (the family cat that just moved back from California) and Maya seem to have the meaning of a snow day down pat since this is what they've been up to all day while the idiot humans were outside shoveling...
