Waking up this morning I looked out of the window and there was a good 5 inches of fluffy white stuff covering everything outside.
I was supposed to drive to Norwalk today to visit a prospective client and was out shoveling my truck from under its wintery coat when my boss called and told me that the meeting was off.
Like a child back in school, my heart lifted and the same feeling came over me that I remember when my mother would come into my room to announce the wonderful news!
Back then, I would jump from my bed and ready myself for a day of fun in the snow. Now, all I want to do is crawl back into bed and get some much needed rest.
Unfortunately, working from home when I’m not traveling, it’s not a day off by any means.
After making a breakfast that more than replaced the calories that I burned while shoveling, I’ve now fired up the Laptop and I am sitting with a cup of coffee reviewing my never ending to-do list.
Perhaps I’ll knock off a few of the lingering items and then go outside and play in the snow with the puppies.

hi,
We long for an affection altogether ignorant of our faults. Heaven has accorded this to us in the uncritical canine attachment.
