seize the day!

My friend/neighbor called today to ask if I was up for a spontaneous lunch between her writing deadlines & my appointments with clients and all my broken-armed & sick kids, who were temporarily covered by a sitter. I said sure - it was perfect timing, so we had a little Japanese food. As soon as she sat down, she said she had a proposal...hmmm.
We had joked yesterday that we wished the kids had gone to school instead of having a snow day so that the grownups could go sledding. SO: she had brought a big two-person inflatable sled, hats & gloves...if I was up for it, that is.

Of course I was & it was such fun - you can't help but giggle when you're sailing downhill on a sled! Turns out that it was her birthday (note to self for next year) & she wanted to be sure to do something not grown-up! Nice one!

Happy birthday Laura!!
