Snow Day #4

Well, it's snow day #4, and it snowed again today. It's so pretty watching the snow flakes fall. They sort of have their own little ballet going on out there. I have gotten progressively sicker as the week has gone on. I guess it's nice that I haven't had to use up any sick days or put my co-worker through the pain of having a sub fill my place. I've taken Day quill, but it hasn't done a thing for the massive sinus head ace I have going. I think my head my explode at anytime now.

So here I sit trying to post new listings on my shop, not making much progress, as I am here writing a blog entry. I am drinking peppermint tea, made by my sweetheart, out of my favorite Christmas thing. It's a tea cup we found at an antique shop up in Seattle a couple of years ago, while there for our anniversary. I felt it was time to pull him out since not only is it Christmas time, but yesterday was our 19Th anniversary. I've tried to find another cup like it. It took quite a lot of looking just to figure out the pattern name. I have since found a cup or two for sale on ebay. One of these days, we'll get a second cup so we can have tea together. I'm sure Bob doesn't really mind since most American men don't really like drinking from delicate china tea cups.

The snow flakes continue to fall...yeah! Hopefully this will just be a full snow week! As of Friday we start our winter break. It wouldn't break my heart if we didn't go back to work/school until January.

Snow Day!!!

I woke up this morning to snow! It wasn't totally unexpected ,the weather reports said it might snow, but they just usually tease us. I know that in many parts of the world this is a normal winter occurrence. Here, unless you live in the higher elevations, we only get it once or twice a year. Which means everyone freaks out when it snows! Schools shut down, people don't go to work etc. Now for me, since I work for the school district, if there is no school, then I don't have to go to work. I just stay home drink hot cocoa, look at the pretty snow and still get paid for the day. I really like snow days!

Quinn, my golden retriever really likes them as well, but for different reasons. I think he just really likes the snow! Tomorrow morning I think we'll go for a snow walk, since, yes, they have already said the schools will be closed on Monday!!!! yeah for me. According to the weather I may get an extended vacation out of this. It's supposed to stay below freezing and keep snowing for several days.. I better make sure I have enough cocoa.
