In Suspense

I have a "To Do" list that is long enough to keep me busy long past hibernation season is over, but all I want to do today is hibernate.

Well, not entirely true. I'd like to go exploring, but there are at least six batches of laundry, both the kitchen and bathroom need to be scrubbed, last week's clean laundry is all in the nursery, begging to be folded, the floors need attention, I need to make a small grocery list and ... we won't even discuss the state of my bedroom.

Besides, it's raining. And cold. And Himself and friend went off skiing today, leaving me with the Hoopty, which isn't good on wet streets. And I have no idea where I'd actually go exploring, given that I can't seem to find anything going on and it's cold and rainy outside.

So, I've sat here for the 40 minutes that Baby Girl has been asleep, thinking I really should DO something while she's asleep, as it's much easier to clean when she's sleeping. Nothing happens.

I sit here in my Christmas pj bottoms and an enormous Snoopy sweater and wonder how on earth I could possibly be wasting my one real weekend day just sitting here.
