No longer snowed in!!!

I am finally out of the house! I'm glad, because I was really runningo ut of things to do. My homework is finished and my house has never been cleaner.

School was out for the kiddies today, but we staff members (a lot of us, anyway) braved the roads to show up for our "optional teacher workday with a two-hour delay!" I feel super-accomplished for making that 21-mile drive in the sleet and ice-I'm typically too chicken to try it.

The roads weren't too bad. Getting out of our driveway was a little rough, there was a definite fish-tail effect when I pulled out of our road, and the road where GBT is located was a bit scary....but I managed to make it here in one piece.

Class was cancelled last night, is cancelled again tonight, and we'd already planned to meet online for Thursday's class...I can honestly say I don't mind not making that drive this week. The meteorologists now say we might be in for more "winter weather" this Friday. We'll see- but just in case, I'm going to go to Mama's and get my sled out of her basement, and buy a new pair of boots. Now watch me make those preparations, and it won't snow again!!

I can honestly say I'm enjoying just how much I'm getting to see my husband this week- graduate school has really taken away from my time with him. This semester is especially rough, since I am in class three nights a week. Even though it's tough, I keep reminding myself it isn't forever, and I'll be finished in September.

Hope everyone stays warm and dry!
