Snow Days

We got our first snowfall of 2010 yesterday. It started about 12:30 where I was at and by the time I went to pick Megan up from school, it was in full swing, complete with emergency vehicles roaring down the streets to assist the latest unfortunate drivers.

We hunkered down about 3:30. It looks like we are going to be doing at-home projects today. More snow is on the way. Luckily we got our "snow supplies" yesterday, along with the rest of the citizens of this fair metropolis. Megan is out of school today and she is thrilled. She plans on "sleeping in". I, on the other hand, cannot sleep in when the canine children are whining to go outside and play in the snow. They go outside, play for about 30 minutes, come back in to get warm and we repeat the whole process again in about 30 minutes. Hmm - sounds more like children than animals!

Hoping I can get out tomorrow because I have a full agenda planned. I can only take one day of snowboundness. After that, I start to go a little looney!

Thank God for snow days. My sister in Florida gets "hurricane" days. I guess wherever you live, you get to have certain days off for acts of nature, etc. Other than the domestic projects, I am going to relax and psych myself up for next semester, which, BTW, is only five days away.

Hope you all enjoy your snow day! Stay tuned . . .

Snow days are fine - if no essays are due! Our snow days are, thankfully, over for now - more snow due on Sunday when they'll probably begin again!
