my first snow day!!

I can’t believe that they cancelled school last night!  I can get a ton of stuff done today which is awesome, but then there’s the little part of me that says “crap, now the next check will only be 4 days of work”.  It really sucks trying to slide through the holidays when car insurance is also due in January.  UGH!  But I’m up early this morning to do my workout tapes, go to the dry cleaners, allergist, and go to meijer to get all the stuff I Need to bake with to make my cupcake snowmen. 

I was one of the crazy drivers who went out last night to get pizza.  Jimmy Johns wouldn’t deliver and Tios was closed.  I’ve been sick of pizza (been getting a lot of it for free lately). Anyway, needless to say, my awesome car sliced through one of the side streets here.  I’m really impressed. As I got to the main roads, cars were stuck ALL over the place!  Every side street for about a mile had at least one car stuck in the snow!  I honestly can’t believe my car just got right through it, but I also spent a lot more on snow tires which last night had paid off.  Everything looks so pretty.  I”m not a big fan of “winter” but I do like the “snow storms”.  The xmas lights looked awesome with a white layer over it!  Maybe I need to live in Colorado, cuz I’d much prefer snow than just “cold”.

Steve shoveled the driveway yesterday.  We got 9 inches over here.  The problem with our driveway is that there is just nowhere to put the snow.  We have the side of the house on one side and our next door neighbors on the other (with nothing in between).  So its either shovel to the back yard and then scoop up and put it in the front yard–a lot more “carrying” than it should be.. luckily we went to Justin’s party in Lansing so my car didn’t have as much snow as his was barried!!

So its been a nice longggg weekend.  I am looking forward to two weeks off as work has realllly slowed down. There’s only so much majong solitaire I can play really before I want to give up!
