Back into hibernation mode

Spring break is supposed to be a time of getting outside, enjoying the weather and taking a relaxing, nature inspired break from tedious study and work.

Well, here in Michigan on this lovely spring break, it has been snowing for the last 2 days.  After a wonderful thaw and the promise of warm temperatures trees had started to bud, the grass was green and winds were mild and tempting us to step foot outside and break our winter hibernation.  Until it snowed….again….3 inches on the ground….for the last 2 days….and more on the way.

And as for my 15 year old daughter and my cat, they have decided to sleep in, cuddle up and go back into hibernation mode.  Here is how I found them coping at 12:30pm today.

Lesson learned…go with the flow and take comfort where you can
