5 Wintery Weekend Ideas

Now winter has set in it's time to start thinking up ideas for things to do that involve keeping, or getting, warm. Here are some wintery weekend ideas to get you started.

One afternoon a man came home from work to find total mayhem in his house. His three children were outside, still in their pajamas, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers strewn all around the front yard. The door of his wife's car was open, as was the front door to the house.

In the front of the house the teve was loudly blaring a cartoon channel, and the floor was strewn with toys and various items of clothing. In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, breakfast food was spilled on the counter, dog food was spilled on the floor, a broken glass lay under the table, and a small pile of sand was spread by the back door.

He found her lounging on the bed, still curled in the bed in her pajamas, reading a novel. She looked up at him, smiled, and asked how his day went.
