Ice

Everybody is safe and warm with a free day today. Once every few years, we get a day like this and I love it. It’s like a gift - an unscheduled day off to rest. Sleet came down for hours yesterday and yet this morning there is only a very thin layer of ice on everything. Enough to shut down the city but not enough to make the trees look pretty. Actually, the trees, bushes, and my love grass all look kind of sad, frozen in grotesque shapes. But I will still enjoy this day!
