Sometimes they deal with you. Snow and ice and rain have their way of bringing normal routine to a standstill or forcing you to make critical planning choices. At those times, you ought to really appreciate the basic comforts - heat, power, food - because you never know when next you might be without them. Talk about being "in the moment"; those kinds of moments are equally memorable - just much less enjoyable. Here's to a less-"interesting" season for us all. =Chuck A semi-redeeming aspect about the often-cited vagaries of weather… you’re forced to deal with them. Sometimes they deal with you.

This past weekend the snow kept me grounded at home and fully tucked away with my family. There was no errands, no email, no Twitter and no TV, but for a Christmas special or two. Friends popped in (by foot); the fire was on non-stop; we played games; and looked at old family photos. By Monday morning, I felt as though I had been on vacation for a month! Here's to the power of lightning, snow, family, friends, and silence. Happy holiday to you! And thanks for making my 2008 brighter. Cheers, Polly Wonderful post Dave!
