Snow Day #1
I woke up at 5am to use the restroom and looked out my bedroom window and thought, "Crud, the snow isn't on the streets, we'll have school for sure." I went back to bed and woke to the phone ringing at 5:30-ish, and heard a recorded message saying school was cancelled for today! I will admit, I barely remember the message, I just remember turning off the alarm clock and going back to sleep.
At 8am, Jay woke me up. I really couldn't blame the pup, as I went to bed at my regular time, and had slept an hour past my normal wake up time. So, we got up. I moved to the couch where I took the position of a couch bum.
While I remained on the couch the bulk of the day, I was actually productive and not exactly a bum!
I got grading done, entered data in the database (not done, but closer than I was this morning!), paid bills, and even started Christmas Cards!
Jay and I even went on a short walk! (Too cold for our standard mile, not to mention he was whining and refused to walk at one point because of the cold!)
It was a nice, productive day.
Normally at this point of a snow day, I would be praying hard for another snow day. However, either way I'm good. Go, stay,it doesn't matter. 6.5 school days left until BREAK!
They are predicting wind chills 15-25 degrees below zero. So, while the roads are okay, the cold temps may keep us in one more day.
Something tells me Jay would love that, as he's been at my feet sleeping most of the day!
:-)
Life.
Is.
Good.
