Whiling away a winter weekend

It feels like winter in my part of the woods, so my idea for the weekend is to pretend like you have a power outage, turn off the computer, the phone, the lights, etc, and build a fire and spend time with your honey or yourself, just relaxing. The best part is, it's not a real power outage, so you can make yourself hot cocoa or coffee or a nice hot meal. I do suggest reading a book with a flashlight though, just to keep up the ambience. :)

Thanks peachey! This idea came to me because a friend of mine called me on her cell phone during a real power outage and told me about all the fun she was having. It's a great excuse to be lazy all day.

Yes and with no excuse to have a tv or radio good time to communicate and find out what we can learn more about each other. If we have a partner and been awhile since real good feeling and need commuication, great time to find out what the needs are.

Some time we get use to one another and forget over time needs change. This is a great way to talk about them or just find out...

If you have children great time to show them you do not need those things in life to have a good time. This is a great time to drag out those dusty board games and get going...
