Woke up to white snow on everything covered with a sheet of ice from freezing rain that lasted most morning and early afternoon.

It's the first saturday I haven't run for a long time.  It seems more like a sunday since we're all home together all day & not going out to do a million things.

Tomorrow will be a repeat since church is cancelled.  Maybe if it's warm enough to melt some of the ice, I'll get to run tomorrow...maybe.  Depends on whether I make those oatmeal chocolate chip cookies or not. 

I was thinking it would have been a good day for yak-trax, but then I enjoyed the break so much, I'll keep them off my wish list for the time being.

The best part of today was watching all the birds at the birdfeeder all day long.  It took them a year to find it, but they finally did, and they ate all day long.  I counted 20 birds at one time.  Some waiting in the tree, some on the snow below eating the stuff that fell down, and some on the feeder.  Most of them were little birds, but there was one that looked like a dove, and a cardinal.  Pretty cool.

Church is canceled, eh? You must have had quite a storm. I wish our church was canceled. I have to give a talk, which I'm trying not very successfully to write right now. Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies sound wonderful.

It sounds like you had a fun relaxing day with hanging out at home and the bird watching.
