Yesterday was beautiful. The last three days were beautiful, actually. Gorgeous, sunny, not terribly cold. I even sat out in the sun for one day, just to see what sunlight feels like again. Look at that sky. Look at that icicle! We grow 'em big around here.
Yesterday, I was feeling energetic, so I got out the carpet steam-cleaner, and cleaned the living room carpet, laid down paper on the traffic paths, scrubbed the kitchen floor, and washed all the throw rugs. All this managed to suck the energy clean out of me, but at least I felt productive.
Today? Is a snow day. So, I'm not going anywhere. Neither of the kids has to go to work, which is good. I feel like I should have gotten out for a bit yesterday, while I could.
Oh, well. I have Jasper, and MSNBC.com's Olympics, a warm house, and all the tea I can drink. Too bad it's not Christmas, it sure looks like it outside.
Lucky for you, I have things for YOU to do while I am snowed in, as well. First up: I am way overdue in telling you about the new, improved format at Room 704, where I hold the title, Supreme Mugwump Queen of the Blogosphere Oldest Person in the Room Staff Writer. This month, Room 704 switched to a monthly magazine format with a different theme for every month. February's theme is "Celebration" and you can find my piece, Beers, Bewbs, and Talking Frogs by clicking on the blue letters.Next up: The Zombie News Network. We have a guest writer up right now, with a story in two parts, it's Amy from Subject to Change. Seems she was inspired by a piece the Captain wrote, and put this little (pt.1) (frightening!) beauty together (pt.2).
And finally, a little later this morning, you'll be able to see something I wrote for Mrs. G of the Women's Colony. Men are invited, too. Gary, (the fARTIST) is probably feeling a little lonely as our only regular male commenter, so join in! Tip for guys: You may wish to avoid the Cabana. Unless you are gay, in which case, we may need to chase you away from the Cabana.
