Icy Days

Since it sleeted for almost an entire weekend, we are covered in ice. Our power did not go out, thank goodness! Fortunately for me, I had just checked out from the library a book of the complete works of Jane Austin and have been deliciously savoring it to the dismay of my family. For some reason they seem to think that I'm not as attentive when I have a good book in hand. :)

The kids are wanting to go sledding today so we'll see. I'm not as excited about it because I HATE to be cold. L However, my husband is off work today so he may take them. Hmm, this may work to my advantage.

Everyone out of the house sledding. Quiet enough to read Pride and Prejudice without interruptions. And cold enough for a hot cup of coffee. THAT, my friends would be a perfect day!

Who knows though, I might weather the cold after all...

Okay, well, I vote for solitude, Ms. Austen & coffee! You can exercise any old time. ;~D

We're in Edmond, so I definitelty know whereof you speak. Let's just hope for a little thaw, shall we?

All I can say is I am oh so glad it is over for us. I did get to stay home from work this morning but last night was no good at all. I hope you got to enjoy your book!

Love the name of your blog. P&P is my Favorite book but I love to exercise so I vote for some sledding (Cause it is true they are only young once and us too:) and the rest of the day reading
