This is a day to just stay in bed.
Here in Chicago, it's gray, colder and freaking WINDY out...possibly up to 50 miles/hour.

So, I'll probably go back to bed in a few. I wish I had someone else in bed with me...but he's 416 miles away. :-(

1. Yea, me too
Were going to get the wind later today in Columbus, but I have two kids at home and they wouldn't let me stay in bed all day. So have fun, only wish you had your special someone with you.

2. I thought about that myself
but I've got a lot to do. Enjoy your day in bed. Even if you are alone. Find a good book and pamper yourself!!

4. Fight the fright!
I stretched then ran almost four miles. When I got home made a delicious smoothie all before 9:00. The cold wind blew the rain fell and I said it was good.

6. And tomorrow is supposed to be even worse!!!!
Much colder. I'd love to cocoon today, but must go Christmas shopping. Plan to hit Lincolnwood Town Center, because it is indoors.

My guy is 800 miles away and it is supposed to be in the 60s there today...damnit.

11. You're not missing a whole lot.
So, I got up. Did some housework...including taking out the garbage. Went outside in a t-shirt, pajama bottoms, a 2 day's growth of beard, and bedhead hair. Dumped said garbage bag in the dumpster. And...what a crappy, crappy day it is.

Went back inside to my apartment...and here I am. Online for awhile...and then back to bed. :-)

12. My daughter wouldn't let me.
She's a 10-year-old slave driver. Who can't make breakfast or take a shower by herself.
