The first snow day of the season. I don't know what it is but I love a snow day. Maybe its the throw back from those school days when we would wait in front of the TV or listen to the radio just waiting for the announcement. I went to Villa Maria Academy so it was always at the end of the alphabetically ordered list. Since my son has been in school I have had the extra joy of getting a personal phone call for my sister Tami. She has saved me a drive in numerous times when I didn't think to turn on the TV or radio. Now my son's school has an automated service to email and call at 6 am. However, Tami still calls and I love it!
As an adult a snow day has different meanings. For one thing I hate driving in stormy or icy weather. I am concerned about my family and friends getting into accidents so I like to hear the driving ban in on. Unfortunately it doesn't help me with my husband, because he has to go into work anyway.
When I was working it wouldn't matter too much because I always had my laptop and as long as I had power at home and an internet connection, I could work. The only issue was wanting to go outside and play with my son. Distractions were endless.
I feel like I have a free day. We are going to walk Elmwood, wrap gifts and make hot chocolate.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
