Snow Day

Well we have a snow day here. Most of the school are closed around here. We don't have much snow yet but I guess it could get ugly later, with freezing rain or sleet. It was so funny, when my alarm went off me and kota ran to the living room to see if school was cancelled. Now I am trying to figure out if I can get to moms today for our friday night sleepover! I think if I can make it to the highway it will be clear. Its just these back roads are not being touched right now. Hubby of course had to go to work, they never cancel. So I am praying for his safety today. Just saw a car go by, going about 10 mph. ugh! I was really ready for spring and now here comes my snow I wanted. Monday we were close to 70 degrees again.
So my absence was due to lack of money. The phone was shut off. Never a dull moment in my world. But I really put my time to good use. I have really been a whirl wind of activity around the house, even lost a couple pounds! The kitchen is really shaping up nicely. We do need to replace the linoleum in there, just need to find an inexpensive way to do that.
I was over the inlaws yesterday just chatting and having coffee. My mother in law has all these empty egg cartons and asked if I had a use for them. I thought for a minute and then it hit me. they would be perfect for storing jewelry beads. At least I think they will be. By the end of the weekend I should be able to start moving all of my supplies into my craft room!
Well I don't want to write too much, long blogs get kind of boring to read. But I am doing well, no headaches. I might not have two nickles to rub together but I am blessed in other areas.

I remember snow days! We didn't get too many of them when I was a kid in Alaska. I think the egg cartons are a great use for beads. You could sort them by style, size, and color. Great idea!

it's hard being broke as a joke, I know. But you are soooo right that family makes all the difference in the world!
I took an ice day myself. After my accident I was like sorry work, I will not be in!! Also I don't have insurance yet so NO WAY!!!

We missed you! By the by, you can come on down here to FL. There's a few houses for rent in my neighborhood! It's within walking distance of the school (great elementary school by the way) Love ya, Deb

Hi Mary. We got 3 inches of it last night. My walks are shoveled, the coffee is hot and I ain't going out anymore! I don't rub nickels together for luck because I need them to help pay the utilities, so I rub two cats together. Sometimes it works!

Glad you're feeling better. Hope you stay warm today. Have you checked out craigslist for flooring? I don't know what things are like in your area, but the list here in Austin often has people giving away (see the "free" section) new material enough to do rooms or stuff that was installed in new homes but the buyers had removed. One of my friends just gave away two rolls of never installed carpet that way.

No snow here-warm weather and some rain. God I love the South.
