It wasn't supposed to snow today. For the last week I've been able to get my son out for a walk once a day. It has worked wonders for my sanity and his. Winters in Massachusetts are long, especially when you are cooped up indoors constantly. We awoke at 7am this morning to find the ground covered with snow. It hasn't stopped all morning and I just saw the UPS truck creep down our hill, sliding dangerously close to our mailbox. I could practically see the white knuckles of the driver from my window. I guess we won't be having a walk today.
My son is napping in the other room, and I'm enjoying my quiet moment. I should be doing dishes or mopping the kitchen floor, but I'm feeling lazy today. Some days I want to jump right into housework and laundry, but today I can't bring myself to start anything. I get angry with myself for not using this precious time to clean up, but still I can't help but savor the hour when the house is silent.
My goals for the day:
Fold three loads of laundry
Post some of the items I'm selling on ebay
You'd think I'd start this blog off with a bang. I was expecting to have paragraphs about the cleaning and cooking I did today, but this is honest. Today is not a productive day. Everyone has days like this. I remember having days like this at work. I'm signing off. I will accomplish something today even though we'll be indoors. I'm getting up right now!
