So the ice storms here have blessed me with two days off from work. Makes me realize just how wonderful the gift of TIME is....oh I still have a lot to do but really feel like I am making progress at least cleaning!!!!
I am finished with school so the ice hasn't stopped me but my youngest has today off due to bad weather.
We're wrapping gifts, ordering some last minute things online with the fireplace lit and the christmas lights aglow. I too feel like I'm given the gift of time when they call a snow/bad weather day.
Our schools have been closed for the past two days as well due to ice and no electricity at one of the elementary schools. DS5 only goes from 12-3 on Tuesdays and Fridays anyway for Pre-K, but this was going to be his last day until January since we are leaving on Thursday for Michigan. Oh well. lol
southern part of the state has had ice, and they also have had two days off from school, but in the area where i live we have had a little ice and snow but not much tonight is supposed to be bad and they are saying Sun we could have snow all day. We will see.
Sounds like everyone is busy.
DS15 had a school delay yesterday, another expected tomorrow
I called in sick today due to a fall on the ice the other day - hurt my knee.
Got the kitchen & 3 bathrooms cleaned
Called doctors & insurance companies
As a SAHM, I forget what a wonderful blessing an unexpected day off from work can be! My DS reminded me of that when I saw his excitement of having his two hour school delay turn into a day off from school. Oh, the gift of a whole day! We don't get much snow here, so it's a rare treat.
I've been thinking of eveyone in the ice! Been there! I hope everyone is doing okay! Sorry about your knee, it'sanewme!
This year we got a woodstove so bring it on Mother Nature!
