Snow Day.

Today was the first day I've worn my snow boots since last winter.  I woke up this morning to the sound of snow plows and instantly got excited.  I had no idea it was supposed to snow last night!  I bundled up, grabbed my camera and went on a morning adventure through the fresh blanket of snow.  The weather report said it was 30F with a wind chill in the 20's.  Well, I guess all this extra pregnancy blood flow is making me less sensitive to the cold because I was roasting hot during my walk.  I may have bundled up just a bit too much.   

 
In other news, I was feeling a serious lack of motivation earlier in the week.  On Monday I didn't leave my apartment.  Not once.  Not even to get the mail.  And on Tuesday?  I didn't leave my apartment till later in the evening and that was only because I had to go to work for a night shift.  I am not sure what my deal was but this dusting of snow this morning has invigorated me to do things.  Laundry!  Dishes!  Taking a week's worth of recycling out!  Walking to the grocery store!  And all before 11 AM.  It feels good to get things done.  Sometimes when I lay around all day I feel so worthless and lazy.  I hate feeling that way.  But I guess we all need mellow and easy days every once in a while.  Right?        

To make up for my laziness earlier in the week, I'll be making this delicious chocolate pudding and some yummy turkey empanadas (recipe to follow).  I love snow days.
