I was scheduled to attend a conference today- which meant that I could sleep in a few extra hours- which I was REALLY looking forward to (the sleep NOT the conference). At 5:45am, my cell rang and a voice told me that we had a snow day. Groggily, I went to the TV to doublecheck because I had just had a bizarre dream and wasn't sure if the phone call was part of it or not. Sure enough, we had no school. Woohoo!


Then, I remembered that I had planned to go shopping after school today to get a number of items for tomorrow's Christmas party and for the HOPE newsletter. Junk! So, at 6am- I was making my way to Walmart to get those items. Seems like everyone else had the same idea! At 8am, when I emerged from Walmart, the snow had not begun, so I decided to finish my Christmas Shopping. I pulled in our driveway at 11:30am with all my shopping completed- and the first snowflakes were just beginning to fall.


What a great snow day!
