No longer in the motions

In my last post I said that I would take the challenge, to step away from the normality and motions of my life for one day. Until now I have been unable to do that. With upcoming showcases, dinners and concerts I haven't had the opportunity to get away from the motions of my everyday life. This morning I was praying we wouldn't have a snow day. With this snow day, I lose a day of work and pay because my program is an after school program. Also, my first and last Christmas Choir concert has been cancelled. Despite the disappointments of the day, I realized I had the chance to step back and follow through a day differently. I slept in today, for the first time in months. For all who knows me well, it is easy to see that I don't handle cold well. Today, I faced the cold full force to build a snowman with my brother. I laid down in the icy snow to make snow angels. I am now drinking hot chocolate instead of coffee with the idea that hot chocolate better suits a drink after building a snowman. My day has only just begun, so I shall continue my day of suprise, I guess you can call it, so now I must end this to continue in a day of adventure.
