The Queen's Chair: Here Comes The Sun

I'm headed outside in a few minutes. It's going to be 80 degrees today and I want to catch some of this good weather. I know I have work to do around my house: dishes and clothes need to be washed, have to prepare for a writing meeting at my house, and have to take my daughter to lacrosse practice. However, for the moment: I don't care.

In Upstate New York, it is cold here about five months out of the year. When it's not cold, it's construction season. I've been waiting for the warmer temperatures for months. And I don't want to wait any further.

The housework can wait. It will always be there. I want to enjoy this gorgeous weather.
