A Note from the Den
With concern for my wife working late this evening I wrote this short letter:
Hello my love,
The animals are all tucked in and taken care of. I even managed to get the trash out early to stay ahead of the coming snowstorm. It seems the weather is even scaring off the salesmen, as there wasn't any Saturday mail today. I’ll admit, I chuckled a bit at the thought of them fearing the flakes—maybe I'm a little too proud of that joke.
Right now, I’m settled into my makeshift den, typing out some random musings. I’m currently sipping my "wine" of choice: Hawaiian Punch Grape. If I’m feeling particularly bold later, I might even move on to the "hard stuff"—Crystal Light Grape with Caffeine. Since my only real plans tomorrow involve folding laundry and making dinner, I figure I can afford to stay up a bit tonight.
I’m planning on starting a new story tonight. I have a general notion of where I want to go with it, but like a good tea, I need to let the ideas steep for a while to see how they turn out. I might even add an addendum to this letter depending on what comes to mind.
On a side note, I’ve already managed to spend my money for next month! I picked up a backgammon board and that specific something you said you wanted. You've probably forgotten about it already. It’s supposed to arrive this Tuesday, though with the weather, who knows.
See you soon and see you safe.
While writing this post the wind has started picking up. No snow yet. That's not supposed to hit until around midnight. So my wife should be safe.
