Four day weekend...perhaps five...

So today I awoke at 6am, my normal time to a Thunderstorm. I love it when it rains and thunders, I sleep better than usual when that happens. I laid there for about two minutes and decided I needed to get a move on since the TV screen said, "Wintry Weather Mix Watch" at the bottom of the screen last night. I figured I needed extra time to get to work. I got up, made my bed, grabbed my water, and headed to shower. Just as I stepped out of my bedroom, Bakerywoman came out of her room and said, "You don't have school today."

I stood there.

What?

No school?

I looked out the window, and sure enough, ice was falling.

I said, "Yes!"

I unmade my bed, climbed back in, and slept until 9:15-ish.

This has been the best ice day yet just because I really didn't expect it. I had played detective last night and checked the weather report online, and it didn't look bad, so I went to bed early thinking we would have school today. I never thought "Gee, I hope we have a snow day tomorrow."

So, today has been GREAT!

Granted, this puts us at 7 days off this year, and we still have wintry weather falling outside. I'll be surprised if we have school tomorrow. They said on the news tonight that as of today we won't be out of school until May 28th, and that will change again if we don't have school tomorrow.

I don't care. I am enjoying this immensely.

Today I was semi-productive. I managed to write an IEP and get two other IEP's finished so I can send them off this week.

But I have tonight off.

I love my job!

Later!
