Winter Life

Well, if I thought I was an affront to fashion before, I am certainly topping it today, with some workout capris, cabled legwarmers, Birk sandals with socks, and a Howard Community College hoodie.

But I reckon I can be forgiven, for we are in the grip of the Historic Weather Event. I am mostly enjoying it, and mildly worrying about it. Let’s think about how nice Sunday will hopefully be. Here is a glimpse based on last weekend. Doesn’t Jack look like he’s having fun?

Last weekend we did in fact have a wonderful time taking snow walks and being cozy. Honestly, the enforced down time has been a blessing. Sometimes the only way for me to unblock mental blockages is through a lot of no-obligation time.

For the east coast folks, may you be safe and warm, and enjoy whatever it is you get to do this weekend. I have a copy of Poems to be Read Aloud, and it may be a good night for a little Cremation of Sam McGee. We have chili ingredients, I believe, and some Mountain Dew Throwback purchased in the height of last-minute grocery store panic. (Not proud.)

Maybe I’ll even have time to consider finishing my best albums of the past decade list.

    Time to just be is valuable. And we were warned, this time. =)
