Someone had fun out in the snow today...but it wasn't me!! In spite of the fact, that my particular school program doesn't have many snow days to spare this year....I welcomed that phone call this morning telling me that Alex had the day off....and I welcomed all the texts from co-workers as we waited to see if our school would follow. It became obvious as the hour grew later...that in fact, it was not going to happen. I hopped in the shower, and when I got out, I checked my phone only to see a message that said, "We just closed!!" Of course, they would wait until I got up and moving! But, after letting the Allie out for a brief play time...I was back to bed. I would like to tell you how productive I was with this gift of a day....this extra time. Unfortunately....I just walked around the house like a lost soul. I did run to the grocery store and stop to vote on my way home. I did make a few batches of modeling clay for a school project. I did run the dishwasher and do a few loads of laundry. I did harass my son until he caught up on some trombone practicing...other than that...pure relaxation and procrastination.
I thought to myself as I was out on my little errand....that if there has to be a snow storm....I approve of this one.....enough of a threat to cancel school, roads still clear, and enough to make the trees look like a winter wonderland. No shoveling needed. I approve! Two thumbs up! So, I am going to get back to doing nothing...and will hopefully wake up tomorrow raring to go with a little bit more motivation!!
