You figured it out yourself Florence, with your last post.
If you can't beat it, join it, applies when it comes to winter.
Snowmen. DD2 has got to love it.
Snowball fight.
Angels in the snow.
Lick an icicle.
Sledding.
Skiing or snowshoes.

Fireplace? Imaginary one on your puter works.
Hot cocoa.
New warm dry socks.
Afghan and a good storybook.
Watch a movie together.
Cuddle, giggle, bake cookies.

So Dec. 21 is actually--hump day!
