Fabulous Four Days

The last 4 days have been absolutely fabulous ... Thursday I got my first snow day this season ... we probably could have gone into work just fine because the roads were above freezing and the snow didn't start sticking till around 2 ... but all of us wanted the snow day ... so we took it ...

Friday I got to leave work 4 hours early ... just half a day there which was fabulous ... I had a dentist appointment to get my permanant crowns ... first 2 I have ever gotten and it was the climax of 6 months of terrible dental problems ... it is SO GREAT to not have to worry any more ... no more chewing carfully ... searing pain ... from the first of September to February 25th it has been a slippery slope on what I could do ... and now ... NO WORRIES ... it is fabulous ... I couldn't be happier ...

Saturday David and I met my brother, his wife and daughter at the American History Museum to see their America on the Move display ... it was fantastic ... we also got to see Julia Childs kitchen which was a great exhibit ... We had lunch and gilato while at the museum and Ellie was just a character all day ... I love that little girl ... after the museum we all headed to my parents house for dinner ... David fixed chicken on the grill and we watched a video we took at the museum ... it was a great day all around ...

Today we cleaned house and relaxed ... it was a nice Sunday for sure ... and it looks as if I might get my second snow day ... reports say it is going to be a great snow and tonight I will be going to bed like a kid waiting for Santa ... I wake up so early in anticipation of a snow day ... :)

Snow Day :(

I really was holding out for a snow day for Monday ... since we don't get President's day off ... I heard it was supposed to snow on Sunday and I couldn't have been more excited ... lately when we have gotten snow it was on Saturday so by Monday the streets were clear ...

In 2002 we had a week off at one point because we got 30" of snow ... this year not one day off for snow ... and my office is pretty liberal ... if there are a couple of inches we are closed ... and I really wanted at least one day off this year ... a free day to hang out at home ... check my email and just relax ... but since winter is almost over I fear we aren't going to get one ...

I am still going to go to sleep dreaming that the winds turn and the snow/sleet/ice ... Something falls from the sky ... but as it looks right now ... I will be up and off to work in the morning ...
