Best Work Week Ever

I could really get used to having a 2-day work week. I know it won't ever happen but what a great way to ease back into school. The roads are just fine right now (it's cold as hell, however) but later, around noon, things are going to hit the fan. Allegedly. A clipper will move through dropping 2-4 inches. Rather than risk a shit show by releasing early, many/most schools in the area called off last night. It made me so happy. Especially since I'd planned on calling off anyway and now I don't have to use a sick day. (Although with over 150 sick days, does it really matter?) It's going to be a good day! 

I will say the dogs are quite confused. They don't understand this routine or lack of routine that we've been in these last few days but I know they're happy to have me home. They aren't especially happy that they haven't gotten a solid walk in lately (Scout especially) but at least they've gotten a little something. They're not going to be happy when there's more snow on the snow come this afternoon. 

My plans today: After I finish this I'm going to get on the elliptical. Typically on a Friday I don't do yoga but we'll see...maybe a 15 minute hip-stretcher. My hips have been giving me fits lately. Talking to Maggie yesterday she realized that the cold really affects her ankle (more than rain) and it made me wonder if that's what's been going on with me. And then Jim came home with really achy hips as well. Hmm. 

Anyway, after I get my exercise on, it will hopefully be light enough to get the boys out for a little jaunt. Once done with that, it'll hopefully be 9ish and Aldi will be open. I need some staples so I figured I'd get out there before the snow starts. Jim said he's going to wrap up today around noon so once he gets home, maybe we'll play games and snuggle up with a fire. The Ohio State game is at 7:30 tonight and Jim will probably want to watch that. (I don't give a shit but I know other people do...I'll root for our "home" team.) 

I do need to do some work today. I have a scholarship IEP on Monday and the dumb fuck chick at St. Ursula who provided me with the information only got me the info yesterday. (IEP drafts should be sent at least a week ahead of time.) The info she did send sucks. She obviously knows nothing about special ed so I'm having to figure out what to write. I don't really give a shit since it's a scholarship IEP but it's a huge pain in my ass. 

Not sure what I'm going to do for dinner. I have a lot of leftovers in the fridge so I don't want to do anything to produce more. Maybe I'll pull a soup and make some grilled cheese. (Texted Jim about the soup and grilled cheese and he said, "That sounds excellent!") 

Ugh...I just thought about something. I'm just now getting over the soreness from shoveling Sunday and Monday and now I'm going to have to shovel again. Oh well...at least I'll close my rings today. 

K - I'm out. Time to do some stretching. Hope everyone has a safe weekend. Later!
