Indoors & Indolent, Inspiration Interred

Courtyard in snow and ice.

I is for ... is today's DDW challenge.


Emergency Alert
"Portland strongly urges all residents to stay indoors today
& not travel due to ice."

What has this weather done to me???
I could get so much done at home, but Instead I'm Idle.
Couldn't go to Trinity. Can't walk because the streets are slippery.
Hopeful signs: grey skies mean warmer temps. Almost up to freezing!
Maybe it will rain this afternoon so I can get to a late mass.
