Water World! (With apologies to Dr. Seuss)

The sun did not shine. It was too cold to play. So I stayed in the house and got hypothermia anyway.

OK, not really. But it was too cold to play outside and I was driving mom bonkers. So she got out the biggest quilt she could find, loaded it up with all of the plastic/metal/indestructible kitchen items she could get her hands on, and let me go to town.

We had a pretty good system. I'd soak through one corner of the quilt and then she'd move me to a dry spot. After about an hour we ran out of dry spots, but I was just about finished anyway. And she was excited because she got work done. She doesn't know the half of it...
