It was actually a blizzard kind of day. Good thing it was a snow day - no school for the kids. We got about a foot of snow, not bad considering other areas got 16 inches! As usual, my son was excited, he is at the age where he loves to go outside and play in the snow. My daughter used to be like that until she got older; now, she could care less about it unless we go down the road near the winery where the kids can sled down the hill. It is fun but the dressing up part is so tedious, having all those layers of clothing makes me feel like I'm wearing a pair of compression stockings, no kidding! But it is a small price to pay seeing my kids have a great time.
I need at least 5 extra hours in a day during this Christmas season. Really! I'm sure other moms out there feel the same way. Aside from maintaining the household and paying bills and searching online for cheap auto insurance companies (since the rates here in the state where I live is horrendous!), there are the kids' school and extra-curricular activities too! I'm still not finished with my Christmas shopping. ugh... Breathe.. That's what I need to do right now. I'm sure I'll get everything done sooner or later. Well, I hope it's sooner, don't you?
