Snow Day 1
My Snowy House |
This was a welcomed day off, at least I didn't want to have to deal with the cold today. I got to sleep in, do some serious house cleaning, visit the boys for a few hours (they were at their mother's) and get some paperwork for school completed. Not a bad day. It will be good to get back to work tomorrow.
Snow Day 2
2nd day of icy streets |
Living in Texas means the snow melts almost as fast as it hits the ground, right? NOT THIS YEAR. Today we woke up to some really nasty roads. Worse then the day before, what was snow is now a 2"-3" plate of ice. I really wish I had learned how to ice skate. Well, at least I got in a few meetings today about a possible business opportunity. The boys come back to me this afternoon, but we do little other then watch a few movies.
Snow Day 3
My youngest sliding down a driveway! |
Now this is just getting ridiculous. Three Days!!! This is my 11th year in this area, we have never had 3 days off of school before. What a waste educationally this week has become. The boys do an immense amount of play in the snow today. Their mother comes over at 4 to work on her taxes, then we take the boys out for our traditional Thursday dinner out. That was an interesting drive.
Snow Day 4
The boys and grandma with their creation |
Well, school is done for this week. We got several inches of snow overnight. The boys built a snowman with their grandmother while I shoveled the snow off the walkways. They played outside for several hours today. And other then updating this blog, well, I did NOTHING, and it felt GREAT!
According to the weather man this will all be gone by the end of the day tomorrow. We will just be left with a soggy mess. Bye, Bye to snow days of 2011. Also bye, bye to Memorial Day holidays, Good Friday and any other holiday we had left this year.
A great few days off...Hope everyone involved with it had some fun!
