Snowed in!

Well, today is day two of our "big snow" and tomorrow will be day three. It's pretty funny how what the North can handle, the South closes down. We've had about seven inches of snow followed by sleet and ice. Which leads us to Wednesday, still stuck indoors. The sun is supposed to come out tomorrow, so hopefully we'll be back to normal on Thursday. Not sure what exactly I'm going to do with my class for two days, because I don't want get our weeks out of sync. I'll probably use the time to focus on a few new topics and review. The kids will be happy to know that they won't be having any tests this week!

I decided this afternoon since the roads weren't too bad, I'd take a trip to Wal-mart. Where I discovered half of Dillon had the same idea. How sad is it that I just wandered around content to be in a place with other people! I know that one day I will look back on this solitary time and wish it back, but right now I sure could use some company. If we don't go back to school on Thursday, I may be risking the roads again to find some actual. living, breathing people! On the up side, at least I've had plenty of time to get my to-do list done! Tomorrow's agenda contains a little bit of sewing, baking some cookies, a little bit of pampering (nails), and hopefully walking around the neighborhood. Not too shabby for the third day straight stuck inside! Enjoy a few pics of around my home:

Oh, and I just remembered one other thing I'll be doing. Watching our new governor being inaugurated! How exciting is that - if I had been at school, I wouldn't have been able to watch it live. As always, thankful for the small things.
