My recommendations 1. Tell ghost stories by candle light 2. Play hide and go seek in your dark house 3. Play board games 4. Have real conversations with your family 5. Bake treats before you lose power 6. Sleep in 7. Look through old pictures, perhaps with a flashlight, (ya know like the ones you used to print out and can touch) and reminisce/tell more stories 8. Read an actual book 9. I suppose you could clean but that's no fun 10. If you're super adventurous go outside in rain jackets and boots and play a game of tag in the rain...this is only a good idea before the lightening and thunder however. 11 aka THE MOST IMPORTANT. For the love of Pete stop complaining. There isn't a darn thing you can do to stop the inevitable from happening so have a good time during unfortunate events-that's really the only thing you can do. 12. Treat time off as a blessing | What I've actually done 1. Okay, so I didn't tell ghost stories, but I have done this during bad storms before so it's a wise recommendation because I know it's fun 2. My power never went off (crossing my fingers!) so this wasn't possible 3. We played Mad Gab and card games-check and check. 4. This we did with some tension at first (my fault) but I haven't seen Adam laugh so hard in years-it was great. 5. My mom made Vegan Banana Carrot Cake in honor of the last few days of Vegan Mofo. It's deeeelish. 6. You bet I did 7. This I did not do even though I planned-I still could 8. I finished one actually 9. No, no this did not happen 10. I did got outside in MY YELLOW PONCHO to give the dogs exercise. They apathetically chased a tennis ball then left me outside. cool. 11. I only complained when I couldn't watch Dancing with the Stars because of a news show. Then I had a great time playing games so my complaining was pointless 12. I totally did this. I have to go into work today and I'm so thankful I had yesterday off! |
Led ma famille in group yoga in the living room. Adam and Robbie couldn't do it all, ha! It is hard!
Journaled 'cause Imma dweeb and write everything down.
Ate my weight in Animal Crackers (which fyi I'm terrible at identifying...I asked Adam and Robbie if one was a Water Buffalo...yea)
Now I'm going to go for a run and splash through the puddles in MY YELLOW PONCHO. I'm excited.
Ciao!
