Midwinters Night Dream

Our yard looked like something out of those scenic magazines; trees covered in ice, snow covered porch, and a roof with icicles. I guess you don't really realize how MUCH we rely upon electricity. That's right, there's nothing like a good old fashioned power outage to make you realize that Thomas Edison's light bulb was sheer genius. Don't get me wrong I love the smell of lit Yankee candles but when your cold you wish you weren't smelling them, you wish your heat was on. Have you ever wished you were somewhere other than where you were/are? Yesterday I was wishing I was in Florida or a location that was equally warm. Now I do have to say that weather such as we've been experiencing lately has been good for several thing of which are 1. if you're home schooled you can claim a "snow day" 2. you can read A Tale of Two Cities and 3. (and the best) you can keep your fingers warm by constantly playing scales on your violin. Hmm... I think I've rambled on long enough, Bleak House and a Tale of Two Cities calls.
