Good 26º frozen morning. Figures it's all cloudy and foggy so
won't be able to see the moon! Dang. The moon will rise here at 4:05pm today and
will be "full" and up tomorrow night at 8:54pm.
Here is a website where you can put in your city or country and find out
the moonrise times in your area....

Festival of Sleep Day
LOVE this one:
No,
you are not dreaming. But, perhaps you should be. Festival of Sleep Day is
today. It is an opportunity to sleep in, snooze, doze, nap, and catch 40
winks.
This
is the perfect date for Festival of Sleep Day. The holidays are over...Wow,
weren't they exhausting! It's cold and snowy.... time to hibernate. And, why not
re-charge the batteries as a new year of school and work begins?
Festival
of Sleep Day is a favorite holiday to catch up on a little sleep. Whether its
all day, a full 8 hours, or just a power nap, enjoy the day sleeping. Cozy up in
bed on the couch, or any other comfortable place. It's okay to sleep alone,
sleep alone or with someone else.
Caution: Sleeping at work is not recommended, today,
or any day. The only exception is for mattress testers.
Warning
#2: The Surgeon General has
determined that sleeping is good for your health.
