I actually, up until now, took the day off today. Sure there were house things to do, etc...but essentially I did no other work, took no calls on the mobile and just tried to have a relaxing day. We all went to see Racing Stripes which was essentially predictable but very charming movie, and certainly something the kids enjoyed. There were some double entendres that went over the kids heads but there was enough humor that they did get and they certainly enjoyed the show. It's the perfect matinee but not something I'd recommend at full price for singles or people looking for high action or another 'Babe' or another 'Black Velvet' but it was just a simple, feel good, kids' movie. And it had enough to keep the parents awake and even laughing every now and then.
Anyhow, I now have to go finish some chores and get the kids' lunches ready for school tomorrow. It's nice and cold here and they are calling for some snow by Wednesday. Personally, I'd just like a big storm, you know with 20+ inches that will close things down for a day and we can build an igloo out back. But that doesn't have often around here. But it's good to wish.
