Sleet, snow, freezing rain

Wintry weather has me staying home.

I had a mental to do list planned for today, however I hadn't anticipated the inclement weather so here I am typing on my blog. I'm sure they said it was supposed to be sunny today but much like bailouts, weathermen don't have to be responsible for their actions either.

I've been car shopping for about a week now and the process had me reduced to tears today. I knew it wouldn't be easy, I just hadn't realized how difficult it could be. The message scrolling across our screen saver these days is "we conquer by continuing" so I guess that's what I'll have to do.

Jak is curled up in a ball, sleeping on the couch and I think he has the right idea for this dreary day. I should really take this time to fire up the vacuum and do some housework, but Jak doesn't like the vacuum and as the saying goes, let a sleeping dog lie...

I know you are going to hate me for saying this, but I kind of miss a day of sleet, snow and freezing rain when I can wrap up in a blanket and read a book or do a puzzel, or even be making wreaths at the Pratts. Of course I always know that I will be going back to the warm south within a month so I'll only have to have sleet, snow and freezing rain once or twice during my stay. I really do miss the wreath making and the nice Christmas smell when you walk into the basement.
