Next Best Thing

Whats the next best thing to a snow day? A 90 minute delayed opening due to winter weather!!!!! It was great to sleep in a little later, have a nice relaxing breakfast, etc before heading out, great way to start a Friday - maybe every Friday should have a 90 minute delay. :)

Snow Day!!!!!!

Well, it wasn't the 8-14 inches they were predicting but it was enough for NO SCHOOL!!!!!!! We had kinda figured yesterday that there would not be school today so we all stayed up late and totally were not prepared for school/work. I had even brought home a craft project to prepare that we were going to do today in class but I totally forgot about it until one of the other teachers at school emailed me last night that she was being daring and not getting her project ready!!! LOL:) Nothing like the thrill of getting up, looking outside at the snow, flipping on the tv and waiting until you finally see your school listed as closed! Growing up in Massachusetts we didn't have to flip on the tv, we just had to listen at 7:00 am to see if the fire horn blew. If so that mean't school was cancelled. Actually, 30+ years later thats still how they do it there!

It's a New Year!!!!!

Happy New Year!!! It seems like the holidays were really a long time ago, not just a few weeks. But people, its time to take the outdoor Christmas decorations down!!!!!!!! The weather has been great all week so really there is no excuse!! Now if only the town was able to finish the fall leaf pickup......At least in December we had lots of snow so you couldn't see the leaves but now that it has all melted the curbs all look gross with the piles of leaves on them.
