Presidents' Day

Today is a holiday. It's Presidents' Day. I had to go out to the grocery store to pick up a few items for getting us through the snow storm which is coming tonight and tomorrow. I also went to a major department store to get a gift card for a Bridal shower. Mom treated me to some yarn because our local craft store was having a sale. I got a beautiful variegated blue called "Lagoon". I intend to make the next lap blanket in that color. It was good to get out of the house for awhile especially since it's going to snow again and we'll be stuck inside for another day. The temps are a bit warmer today. The car thermometer registered at 41 degrees. Getting out cleared my head of all the cobwebs which have gathered while waiting for this brutal winter to be over. I would have gone for a walk which usually makes me feel better, but there's so much snow all over that there's no place to walk. I appreciate the chance I had to get out today. The next time I feel like walking, I'll go to the mall to walk. Hopefully, I can get a friend to join me.
