laundry

I'm sitting in a coffee house, seriously procrastinating doing my laundry. Really does not sound like a fun thing to do right now. Hmmmm. But the clothes are in the car ready to go. I got everything that I could find that was dirty. Since laundry is done at the laundry mat now, it usually means waiting til I am almost out of socks, then packing up everything I can think of that could perhaps be dirty and throwing them in the wonderfully huge machine. (not the whites of course) Still seems like such a pain. The part that I dislike the most is the waiting part. I brought my book, but still. Not something that I am looking forward to, but the end result and the squeaky clean clothes will be nice.

I had a surreal experience today. Went for a run and stopped when I got by the lake. Then I was standing in the sunshine (extra bright when reflected off of the snow covering the frozen lake) and it was so warm. I ended up sitting on this stone wall for a little bit enjoying the warmth of the sun and thinking how strange it was to be surrounded by snow and yet be just sitting in the warmth of the glorious sunshine. Spring is on it's way! (perhaps after several more snow storms but we're still hopeful)

I am really enjoying just sitting here at this coffee shop though. My computer, some coffee and a pumpkin scone, a comfy chair in front of a fire, who would want to do laundry?
