❄️ Today’s tip: Take a snow hour.

Add snow days to the long list of things that look a little different this year. If remote work and remote school have sucked the usual fun out of a snowy day, consider this: You don’t need a full day off to enjoy it. (Did you ever really spend that long in the cold, anyway?) Plan an hour break around lunchtime to pack in all the highlights — a lightning round of sledding, a quick snowman assembly, a short walk to admire all that white before it turns to slush — and then come back inside, pull on your fuzziest socks, and cap things off with a mug of cocoa before your next meeting.

And if you live somewhere without snow, spend a virtual snow-minute with some pandas for an instant mood-lift.
