Ought, Should...but Probably Won't

I'm eager to get my computer out of my three-year-old's room and into the family den; for obvious reasons, I think. It will be a bit easier to keep up with my internet addiction when the main source is more accessible.

There are so very many things I should be doing right now. If I were organized and motivated I'd make a list and start working my way through it, but...I'm not. Let's face it.

It's supposed to be icy today and tonight... and tomorrow. So far, nothing has happened out here, but they're expecting something. We actually need the precipitation, because we're in a drought right now, but we'd prefer it come in rain or snow form instead of that dangerous intermediary we usually get in the winter.

In other news, I recently discovered one of my cryptogram books sitting on the shelf and innocently picked it up, thinking I'd do a puzzle or two while I sat and watched the news. Bad idea. I'm now on puzzle 105, and not even half-way through the book. (In my defense, 30 of those had been previously solved.)

Here's a picture of Mim. I wish I could just wave a royal scepter and send minions to do my housework for me, but I suspect that's never going to happen. I guess it's up to me.



Update: It's very slick now on the roads, even though there has been no actually precipitation. It's a freezing mist. Zaya's school was canceled for the rest of today and for tomorrow also. Between Daddy and Uncle C, I think we'll get him home soon.

I haven't been feeling very motivated either. I can't wait for Spring!

Oh, not fun! I hate bad/freezing weather. It is freakishly cold in Minnesota this year. Where is global warming when you need it?

Bad weather is the perfect time to do puzzles, be on teh computer or read. Enjoy this inside time and stay warm!!!
