Snow Day? Ok!

So I HATE driving when the roads are icy and snow covered, which is one reason why I LOVE being a teacher. Snow Days! No driving for me. We are currently at our 3rd snow day, and any more after today we have to make up. Boo. But, the new governor might, just might, give us back two more days! Which would take us back to five days like we are used to. Fingers crossed, make-up days in June are useless.

Checklist for Snow Day:

  1. Receive phone call super early to tell me school's closed. CHECK!
  2. Fall back asleep and sleep in on snow day. No check (waking up at 5:45 on a day off is not ideal)
  3. Run and workout. CHECK!
  4. Shower! CHECK!
  5. Paint my tootsies hot pink in hopes the ground hog does not see his shadow tomorrow!
  6. Watch my favorite morning shows I can't usually watch such as Regis and Kelly & Rachel Ray. CHECK!
  7. Dust the house. CHECK!
  8. Sweep the house. CHECK!
  9. Watch several hours of television. (The Secret Life of the American Teenager is sooo unrealistic, but I watch anyway. God Bless Netflix.) CHECK!
  10. Work on a few odds and ends for school. (hey, I did grade a few papers and order some supplies on my day off, not a total day off;)) CHECK!
  11. Make homemade chocolate chip muffins. CHECK!
I finally used my Kitchen Aid mixer I got for a wedding present. And, now I am in love. I'm not sure why I haven't used it more. I guess I just always used the hand mixer because I was used to it. Not anymore. BEST THING EVER!
Mmmm. Delish. Hope the hubby likes them. 

.Well, I feel as though I have accomplished quite a bit on my snow day thus far. And, it's only 3:00!! Guess I have plenty of time to nap and drink hot chocolate until Nolan gets home from work! (And for all you OCD people out there, I hope you don't mind I am ending my checklist with number 11. I know Nolan and Dani would hate that..)

Stay warm and drive safe everyone!!
