It’s Monday. Yuk. We’ve been dealing with bitter, bone-chilling cold for the past several days, but apparently that still wasn’t enough for Mother Nature. On Sunday, she decided to pile on another three or four inches of the horrid white stuff. Abby was thrilled. Me? Not so much.

With temperatures dipping into the single- and double-digit negatives, we spent most of the weekend indoors. There were two different kinds of homemade soup, hot chocolate spiked with peppermint schnapps, fresh chocolate chip cookies, and a couple of movies to round it all out. When the weather turns this nasty, there’s something especially comforting about staying warm and cozy inside.

It was yet another Sunday without sports for me—but that all changes next week when NASCAR fires up its first preseason race! Hot damn tamale, baby!
