Snow Days

This past week was a 3-day work week for me, which I absolutely loved! We were out on Monday for MLK, Jr. holiday...but then it snowed, which kept us out of school on Tuesday as well. I just gotta say, that it was wonderful! I accomplished close to nothing at all. Well, except the previous Friday when we were also called out of school due the the sub-zero temperatures. On that day, I did get my bed made, 3 or 4 loads of laundry done, the dishwasher ran, emptied, reloaded, ran, and emptied again. I also got 8 tubs of Christmas decorations sitting around my house hauled out and put up in the attic. Aside from that, I got the Christmas tree completely disassembled and bundled by branch size, re-boxed and ready to go to the attic. Then on Sunday, the red bows and garland came down off the front porch railing. Rusty got out and got the icicle lights down. So, of course, it snowed on Monday! LOL! I love it when it snows and the icicle lights are still up on the house...it's just so pretty! At any rate, following Sunday, I pretty much got nothing else accomplished whatsoever, but I honestly don't think I care. It was great just to hang around the house, cook, eat, and lounge. I very rarely get to do that. I just gotta say that I love snow days! I hope we get a bunch more this winter! I really don't like the global warming effect and that our winters are so "snow-less" anymore. :(

Snow days are the greatest and to me they are like a little added blessing from God saying, "Here, I know you need more time for this so here you go." Or..."Here, I want you to just slow down and relax....so here's a day for doing just that."

Like I said, I love snow days!
