SNOW NO GO.
It is NOT NOT NOT going to snow up a storm in the wee hours of this morning. It is so NOT going to cancel flights and close airports. I am SO SO SO going to be in Cancun on Friday afternoon, searching for the best spot to sit in the shade and sip a marguerita or a mango daiquiri.
I say so. And so it is. So there.
While I'm gone to soak up the sun and the heat and the Mayan ruins and the flamingos, I have a few places to send you to entertain yourselves.

I don't remember who this link is courtesy of. Apparently this was a short-lived series on ABC a few years back. Somehow I missed it, but I'm getting caught up now. This is a delightful show....warning....you will get hooked. Some nice soul has posted all 16 episodes on youtube. Bless you my child.
And just in case you missed this enormously funny video the last time I posted the link, do check out The Mom Song.
If this is not enough to keep you all busy while you wrestle with February, remember that you can feed the world by playing Free Rice. One grain at a time.
I will bring some sunshine home. I promise.




All those links were great thanks for sharing!
Have a fantastic trip, I loved Cancun when I was there.

Well we did have some sun yesterday, but would it have taken up too much room in your suitcase to bring home some warmth??
