Snow!

Today is my very-first-ever snow day as a teacher!



Last night, when the snow started tapering off around 8, I decided we would have to go outside to do the snow dance, in a final and desperate attempt to get out of work today.  I looked at Mr. Peaches and sharply said, "Get your shoes on.  We have to get outside."

He returned my glance with a grimace and said, "But I'm in my underwear!"

"Snow.  Dance."  I replied with gritted teeth.

We stepped outside.  The Mister in his skivvies and I in my inside out pajamas- which my students told me would do the trick- stepped onto the front porch in the freezing cold and lightly blowing snow.  Quickly, we made up a dance and went crazy.  Until the neighbors spotted us, and then we zipped inside.

They may have made fun- but I don't have to go to work today.

Worth it.

Happy January 21, Dear Reader!

*Note:  Mr. Peaches did have to go to school today.  I'm not saying it's his fault, but he did not wear his pajamas inside out.  Just sayin'.
