I think bears have it right. Carb-load like crazy then find a comfy cave to sleep off the gray days and bitter cold nights of winter. My own desire to hunker down, curl up and stay cozy at home all started during the kids’ holiday break from school.

Sure playing in the snow was fun after the first couple storms, but isn’t the après sledding hot cocoa the REALLY enjoyable part anyway? And who wants to stand on the corner waiting for the school bus to arrive when it’s -2 outside? Um…not me!

So I plan to bust out some board games, work on my Wii skills and discover some more indoor fun with the family. Maybe it’s even time to start planning our summer vacation so we can begin dreaming about sunshiny days and excitement-filled nights!
