I know that I should have jumped out of bed and rushed to embrace the day, but I snoozed in for a bit. We turned on the heat last night. Temperatures in the Chicago area dipped well into the 30s, and I was concerned that my mother might turn blue in the night without a little heat.
\nIn the post below, you’ll see that I’ve finally started working on my basement. I shifted Christmas and Easter decorations to their storage spots along the wall and began the reorganization of the companies papers. Unfortunately, I also stirred up a LOT of dust. Our furnaces draw air from the basement, and along with it, that same dust.
\nSo, this morning we have the snuffles. I’ll have to go out in a bit to do some shopping. Actually, that sounds like a sure way to end my snuffles: get away from the dust!
\nDear Husband resolved the situation by going off to sail for the day. I’m betting that he has both the snuffles AND chattering teeth. It’s still pretty cool out there, and it will be colder on the water.
\nFor whatever reason, I’m glad to have the chance to get out today. We have a beautiful, sunny, clear Fall day, and it would be a shame to waste it!
\nEnjoy the weekend, y’all!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
