The day began when I woke up to freezing cold air on my face.  But the rest of me was snug underneath piles of heavy covers, as warm as could be!  Did I have to wake up in the dark, icy cold?  NO!  The roads were dangerous and school was canceled for the day.  Hooray!

So I’ve got some bonus time at home today, which is a perfect opportunity to work in my two new rooms, desperately in need of beautifying, and to catch up on my annual school-play-writing project, which has been hanging over my head especially menacingly this year.

And, since the sun is already out and the ice is melting, later this afternoon I can go to Lowe’s and buy blinds for the room, and I can go stock up on groceries at HEB.  Perfect timing!
