Snow Day

Well, we finally have an official snow day. I was looking forward to sleeping in today, but the phone rang at 5:30 and I've been up since then. My body's clock did not cooperate and let me fall back to sleep. I ended up going through a lot of paperwork all day long. I will now be ready for the accountant, and I'm learning about Web 2.o today. It feels good to catch up on some things.
My students wanted snow, but they wanted to celebrate St. Valentine's Day at school. I guess we'll do it tomorrow. I'll wear red and hand out treats. I heard that next year we will no longer be infultrated with cupcakes. There's a new law about eating only healthy foods in schools. May be I'll lose weight.
My son and husband are doing the snow shoveling while I stay warm inside. They've done it twice already. My son's happy because he's making extra cash by shoveling the neighbors' properties. Now they're off to Home Depot. I can't believe that they are driving in this mess.
Yesterday was my 30th anniversary of the day my husband and I met. I can't believe how time flies. We ended up staying home due to the weather forecast. We'll celebrate Saturday night. My daughter is away at school and sent us a handmade card. She also created a CD of love songs from the past 30 years. I was so touched by her thoughtfulness.
I'm not sure what to make for dinner tonight to celebrate. It feels like a soup night to me, but I don't know if anyone else will feel this way. I'll make brownies and that should cheer everyone up a bit. It's a day for chocolate, and I didn't buy any because of my diet. I was afraid to have it in the house, and I usually get so much of it at school. My son is upset because I didn't give him any. I told him that I bought him a coat on sale at Kohl's instead. His mood improved greatly. My husband is aware of my diet and gave me 12 red balloons. They will probably be floating around the house until spring. Well I have to start dinner now. So much for my snow day.
