We woke up to snow on the ground with a temperature of 10° Fahrenheit and a wind-chill factor taking it down to -5°. The temperature was in the forecast, but the snow was not. Even this small amount of snow makes driving crazy in this part of the world so we are planning to stay in the house for the next couple of days and hope for warm enough weather that the roads are clear for us to go to the airport for an upcoming trip. Since today is a day off from work (Martin Luther King, Jr. Day), it will be really nice to sit around with a fire in the fireplace, drink coffee, read books, and work on hobby projects with no compulsory work requirements. I think we even have some ribeye left in the fridge! We just hope the electricity stays on.
