This is how we felt about all this snow after it just kept coming.
Last week when I found out work and daycare were closing due to the impending snow dump, I was ecstatic. There was hot chocolate, snowmen, train building, long naps and laundry catch-up on the list!
Then the next day everything was closed. And then another day. And another.
Playing in the snow and eating warm bowls of chili was great. So was homemade pizza and snuggling on the couch. But shoveling, digging out cars, shoveling again, pouring ice melt, shoveling again, putting on and off boots, finding matching mittens, shoveling again and not leaving the house for four days was not so great.
Did I mention we shoveled? A lot?
Tomorrow brings back the routine. You can finally see the pavement of our driveway, and the mailman no longer worries about breaking his neck when he approaches our porch. Most of you return the kids to school Thursday and life will get back to normal. Spring has to be around the corner, right?
How did you survive your snow days? Were they filled with relaxation or chaos?
