Damn cold weather and ice!!!!

I got out to run some errands today after being iced in since Tuesday. I have canceled going to the Bridal Shower in Richmond tomorrow because of the cold and uncertainty about the road conditions.

I was planning on going to Columbia to Gwen's after the shower and now I am planning on leaving Sunday. Tomorrow will be getting my things together for the trip and relaxing because it is my last chance before the marathon that Gwen and I get into with my visits.

This trip is for decorating the guest bedroom so that Clare can move into it before the new baby arrives in July. Designing a built in wall in the "red room" to organize books, toys and the computer. All a lot of fun and interest for me. I'm taking paint supplies, sewing machine and my scruffy painting clothes. She said to bring a dressier shirt to pull on with my jeans in case we get to go out for lunch one day.

Looking forward to all of this except the long drive home. Going is like an adventure but returning home seems like a drag.
