Because in N.E. in January, 43 is a Heatwave

Not only was it almost 50 for a high today, and about 43 when we got home...it was light out until almost 5!  We are inching toward the light, folks.

Arden and I took Shelby for a walk since it was oh-so toasty out.  But really, we have to take advantage of the over 30 degrees days.  She needed the 3 miles and frankly, so did we.

It was a well spent 45ish minutes - even if I had to force myself outside.

She had to finish homework when we got home.  She was wandering around the house looking for her pencil.  Which, apparently, she stuck in our defunct ice maker.  

Naturally.
