reading while raining

There is nothing like curling up with a good book on a rainy day.

All winter long I heard about kids having “snow days” at school. I have only lived in sunshine states (California, Florida and Arizona) so the idea of a “snow day” has never made sense to me. I can only recall school ever being cancelled once, when I was in college, due to a hurricane warning.

Last night it started to rain. And rain. And rain some more. This morning there was an email sent out saying schools were cancelled and to stay off the roads. It’s just a little rain, right? Wrong. Here is a quick look at the local freeways.

And now you understand why I’m not grocery shopping, going to the gym or doing any of those other things I should be doing. Instead I’m home reading. And loving it.
