Ahhh Winter....when are you over
This morning I woke to about 2 inches of snow and no delay of school. It was still snowing, my development wasn't plowed and I really didn't feel good.
Any reasonable person would have shaken the 8 ball and it clearly would have said "GO BACK TO BED".
Sadly, I didn't go back to bed. Instead I took the garbage out, I took the recyclables out. I drove white knuckled to school as the snow continued to fall. Shortly after arriving at school, we learned that we would be dismissing at 1 p.m. and feeding the masses as fast a possible.
Since one of the other lunch ladies is a bus driver she leaves even earlier i.e. 11:30 a.m. to do her high school run as they were dismissing at 12 noon.
It was becoming clearer by the minute that I should have stuck to the "Go Back To Bed" plan.
I survived lunch, I survived clean up and I made it home safely, as did all my children. Of course, once home I realized that I had to shovel the driveway. Remind me again why I didn't stay in bed??
Apparently, we are to get about a foot of snow with this storm. The fact that we have more than 50 days until spring isn't making me feel any better.
I guess I'll post some pictures tomorrow...we better have a delay or better yet a snow day as I really want to stay in bed.

How I spent yet another snow day...
It snowed yesterday.
It snowed today.
We had a two hour delay.
Then school was cancelled again.
White out conditions.
Our last day is now June 11th. Middle G is excited because it is her birthday and she has never had school on her birthday before.
Mommy is seeing summer disappear.
What I did today:
Today I learned how to get silly putty out of a bed spread. Paint thinner. Nothing else worked.
I finished six loads of laundry but they aren't all put away.
I heard the word "killer whale" 5,298 times on television. Free Tilly before he kills again.
I made an autograph book for both my niece and my nephew for their upcoming Disney trip.
I baked a Percy Jackson birthday cake.
What I didn't do:
I did not get out of my pajamas.
I did not spend the day on the computer.
I did not take a shower.
I did not shovel a single flake of snow.
Bracing for another round of winter weather next week and keeping my fingers crossed that school doesn't move into the third week of June!
23 days until spring!
