Here is DC, we're expecting quite a bit of snow this weekend.  I spent part of today rescheduling all of my weekend appointments so I had my pick of re-scheduling times.

I keep the basics (food and necessities) in my house at all times, so I don't need to brave the crazed grocery store.

So now I have a long weekend with nothing to do!  If you are in the same situation, here are some options:

• Use the time to organize a closet or clean out a drawer or a file.
• Do some cooking and stock your freezer with pasta sauce, homemade sou, chili,and stews that you can defrost on busy nights.
• Catch up on the books or magazines you've been meaning to read.
• Use the bloc of time to do some crafting.
• Watch those DVDs that have been sitting next to the tv for weeks.
• Call an old friend.
• Write some letters.
• Have a spa day — a long hot bath, facial mask, manicure, and pedicure.
• Bake.
• Gather family and friends to play cards or board games and eat the baked goods.
• Do some small repairs around the house.

I plan to do some crafting, watch some movies, read a bit, write a letter or two, and take care of some simple tasks I've been putting off.  I'll let you know how I did next week.
