Question of the Day - Monday, January 3, 2022

[MoochNNoodles]

Happy first Monday of 2022!

My kids had a nice, long winter break but the last few days I could tell they need to get back to school. They were starting to bicker and get on each others nerves. And mine. Mentioning that they need to get back to school stopped it pretty well for a little bit. Then I just threatened to send them to their rooms.

So now they are looking for snow days... Sorry kids... You're homeschooled!


What's your favorite way to spend a stormy day?




If it's snow I just want to be inside with a good book. It is nice sending my kids outside to play in the snow. It gives me a little quiet and then they get a lot of energy out so they are nice and tired. If I really have time; its a good excuse to work on a puzzle or a craft project.

If it's a rainy type of storm I often get energized so I'll get to house cleaning.

Stormy days are meant (to me) to be spent in a recliner with all my cats on top of me, watching a good old movie or something that even looks to be remotely interesting. (I usually fall asleep). I might catch up on laundry or housecleaning too, though since i am retired that's not a priority!

 

[artiemom]

Stormy days should be spent inside, watching good movies and eating popcorn!!

Instead of cleaning the snow off the car, etc.

If you have a fireplace (we don't), I feel like it's the ideal day to spend in front of it. Hot cocoa, movies/TV and board games or puzzles.

This will not be my life this year on stormy days, alas.

I like to snuggle up in a recliner and watch an old movie or read a good mystery book. I also like to have a grilled cheese and tomato soup and some popcorn to munch on. I would also like to have a kitty snuggled up with me but I'm fresh out of them.

It snowed here Saturday so I made coffee, watched the Twilight Zone marathon, went on TCS and did laundry. Normally I would read but I finished my last library book and need to get a new one.

 

[NY cat man]

I read, entertain the cats, do crossword puzzles, or work on projects in the basement or garage. It all depends on how the mood strikes me.

 

[MonaLyssa33]

Pretty much what I usually do, sit inside and peruse the Internet, watch YouTube videos and then before bed read and do crossword puzzles.

 

[strider rose]

read, play video games or sleep

No snow here but we do get quite a bit of rain. Those days (like most days) are best snuggled up with the cats and watching TV.

 

[Margot Lane]

Get out in it and look at mushrooms.

We get most of our storms here coming into the summer period and they are generally pretty mild compared to what you guys get in the States.
We will get a couple of days of 100 degree heat then this cold front will roll in with rain and the temps will go down 20-30 degrees in minutes.
Love watching it and being out in it and seeing the whole environment breathe a sigh of relief, seeing the birds and other critters come to life and enjoy the cool air and rain. Except when the thunder starts and poor Blue falls apart in terror.

 

[TMcats]

Sit near the window and watch it.

 

[Bri5]

We've never seen snow. Never.

Mine are homeschooled and we start back Wednesday. I needed a few more days to get the house in order.

 

[vince]

I get cabin fever real bad during a storm. It's almost like I can't stand being cooped up in the house.

 

[CatladyJan]

There's an ongoing 'joke' here in the Midwest that when it storms we go out to watch it especially if a tornado warning LOL That is partly true, but I really like to just get in bed and listen to the rain the thunder.

 

[Maria Bayote]

Contemplate. Listen to soft music. Be alone.

 

[Winchester]

Baking. Preferably bread or rolls. There's something about the smell of fresh bread in the house when the weather is really bad.

 

[bluebaboon]

I like to spend stormy days sitting by the fireplace and watching a movie
