It's a good day to put on a pot of home made chicken soup. I just took a look outside and this time the weather service wasn't wrong. There is about 5-6" of snow out there and it's coming down hard right now.
Hmmm.. maybe just a good day to stay warm, get out a movie, and pull out my crochet hook and some yarn.. or maybe start my day with a nice warm bubble bath.. ahhhhhh.. . sounds lovely!
