A day that ends in ice.

When I woke up this morning my very first thought was related to the extreme comfort I was in. I had curled up in just the right spot of the bed. The pillows were arranged and snuggled around my head with just the right amount of softness and support. The comforter was tucked around me and I had burrowed into it like a turtle pulling it's head into it's shell. The fan was making comforting background noise as well as giving the room that slight chill that allowed me to remain under the comforter in comfort without becoming too hot. I didn't want to move. I wanted to remain right where I was for as long as possible but I knew by the light streaming in through the blinds that it was time for me to crawl from my cocoon and face the day.

At this point I stretched like a cat, rolled over and proceeded to have a heart attack. My eyes had fallen onto my clock which was reading 11am. 11am?! Half of my day was over and I had completely missed it! I can't even remember the last time that I had slept later than 9am. I immediately dove out of the bed and left my room to discover that my house was completely dark and quiet. I couldn't believe that everyone else had slept so late as well! After a bit of investigation I learned that only Kara was still sleeping in her room, everyone else had left.

I took advantage of the situation to have a long, luxurious shower without someone pounding on the door or the hot water running out. Then I spent time doing my hair and make up and getting dressed.

Karla returned home and shortly afterwards Pete (Karla's ex and Devon's dad who is here visiting for the weekend) and Devon came home from the park. We left them to shower and went to pick up Becky and James (Becky's live in boyfriend) and go to WalMart so that I could get myself a new SD card for my camera.

Karla, Pete, Kara, Devon, Neriah, BJ, Becky, James and I then went to see Disney on Ice. It was pretty amazing. If you have children I highly recommend that you take them to see it. They will greatly enjoy it but be ready to shell out quite a bit of money because everything they have there is completely overpriced. The skating and costumes were simply dazzling. My camera seemed to break halfway through but I did manage to get some good shots of the kids and some video of the skating that I shall post later.

Now it's dinner and off to bed to read some.
