Sam Champion and Al Roker are broadcasting from Chicago. You know what that means. Here comes the snow! We’re expecting to get a history-making amount dumped on us. As the inches pile up, we’re socked with a snow day and a case of cabin fever.
In times like these, boredom can make us do things we wouldn’t normally do. Like, I may take out my crockpot for the first time since receiving it over a year ago for my wedding and cook up some tortilla soup. Or, if the house arrest makes my hubby kooky enough, I may try and convince him to let me wax his back with a new at-home hair removal tool I’ve been wanting to test out. Ah, the perks of marrying a beauty editor!
So you see, the city shutting down can be an incredible window of opportunity. I’ll be honest, my inner Betty Crocker won’t be coming out because I don’t even think she’s in me. But, I can think of a million other things I’ve been meaning to get to (choosing pictures for my wedding album, trying out the new nail colors, spring makeup and hair products waiting for review, cleaning out the guest bedroom, etc., etc., etc.) but never find the time for. So, along with the drama that this blizzard brings is a little gift of sanity. Mother nature has cleared our schedules, and now we can catch up on some extra me time guilt free. Enjoy!
What will you be doing during this white out?
