Unstructured?

Do you ever have to get past yourself to enjoy something you want to enjoy anyway?

Today, for instance, school was canceled! We have well over 10 inches of snow and it's still steadily falling. Absolutely nothing just had to get done around here -- no groceries to buy, no laundry to do, no dust-bunnies screaming my name (they are bound and gagged under the couches where they belong)...

A day free to just be. The hardest kind of day for me.

Honestly, it doesn't take me long to fill such days with plans. Even making lists of the fun we should have since we don't have to do anything.

Do you still love me?

(Do any of you perhaps see a little of yourselves here? I can always hope...)

So here's to playing Memory, Meg's mini- mani-and-pedi, legos.com, tomato soup and grilled cheese, snow angels, and a very furry dog that hates the cold as much as I hate the heat.

So many possibilities... one reality to enjoy...
