Sick Day

According to the weatherman it's supposed to be raining. But is it? No. It isn't. Yesterday it snowed a good 5 inches at my house, only stopping in the late evening. Snow everywhere! I'm dying to go out in it but i know it would be foolish, i'm stuck at home today, tired and sick, while my mom goes to work for me for a few hours. I feel depressingly useless when i'm sick. But i did have fun this morning, Hannah painted her wooden H she got for Christmas while I amused myself to no end finger painting. I felt like a kid again, happy to just smoosh my fingers in the cold paint, not worried about the smudge on my nose or the smears all over my arms and the table. We listened to Jesse and Liz Enns new cd, Light Of The Morning, which is a really good cd, and ate apples and crackers and cheese. Sisterly bonding!
It's melting outside now, puddles of slush on the driveway which i forced myself to shovel, icicles all gone (:( tis a shame!), there is however still a foot of snow in the front yard with 3 ft high piles by the driveway. Those will take some time to melt thankfully. And who knows, maybe tomorrow i'll be feeling better and i'll drag myself outdoors to make snow angels!....
