It's nice to be warm when it's cold outside.

There's a big storm expected here today, so I ducked out with the girls to pick up some groceries. I was planning on shopping today anyway, so I just made sure we went before it started snowing.

It's a snow day again, but the teen is over at a friend's house, so it's just me and the girls home right now. It's rather peaceful and cozy with the snow falling outside and everything nice and warm inside. I'm ignoring the housework in favor of sitting here feeling relaxed for a while.

The teen and his friend are hoping he gets snowed in at the friend's house. While I really don't think that's going to happen, I understand the attraction. I would have loved something like that when I was a kid. I still wouldn't mind getting snowed in at a hotel, on vacation, say, except for the fact that I would have to come up with a way to pay the credit card bill at the end of the month!

My sister's husband is home. Hooray! I'm so glad he's home safely, though not nearly as glad as she is, I'm sure. Now it's just waiting for my brother to get home. Hopefully all will go well with him, too.
