It is the last weekend of the year, and several inches of snow fell last night. There was only one reason for me to get dressed - to move my car, so that the plow could clear the spot. Luckily, I had parked my car in a visitor's spot the night before, so I only had to brush off the car, scrape the windshield a little, and move the car back to my already plowed packing space.
When I came back inside, RQS wondered whether I had even started the process of cleaning off the car. And I was getting ready to get undressed to be able to relax for the rest of the day. And rest we did, watching several movies and videos on the TV, making excuses not to do some laundry. Yet, we finally took care of that task around 3:30 pm.

Snow days are common at this time of year, and I cherished the forced relaxation time we get on these days. Yes, we will do laundry on these days when at my home. But I can often stay in my jammies for much of the day.
One thing I've noticed is that I am slowing down. Getting older is a drag, but the alternative would be far worse right now. For everything, there is a time and a season. Right now it's winter outside, and I see that stage coming in my life. And I'm comfortable with that.
