Memorial is Saturday and I still have 1000 things to do to throw the worst fucking party ever. I have a bunch of stuff that is supposed to arrive this week, all of the things crossed that the BS weather happening everywhere doesn't impact anything. I told my mom today that if I make it through this week I'm going to Aruba and maybe never coming back. Do you have anyone helping? Anything we can do to help? We have lots of people available and it's just random stuff like putting all of the photos on the display boards, and getting signage printed, etc. I just keep remembering things that I still have to do.

I finally killed our DirecTV. They were price jacking me every 3 months. Streaming Hulu with Max for my horror fix now.

I found out yesterday that if you have Instacart+ you can get peacock free for a year. So many bravo shows to binge!

School is delayed for tomorrow already because of the negative temperatures. I'm guessing we will be too. I can't remember if it's -30 or -20 they delay for. I think it's supposed to be around -27 when school starts tomorrow.

They have cancelled school tomorrow because of the cold. So now the kids have gotten a 5 day weekend.

I love it. Love, love. Okay, not the bitter cold temps, but it was just the perfect first snow storm of this winter.
I would enjoy it more if I didn't have a job where I have to go in to work no matter what (healthcare). I hate driving in this stuff. I went in the ditch in high school and I think that traumatized me, lol. But also the cold sucks because the kids can't even play in it. Mine are dying to go sledding at their grandparents house but its way too cold. Hopefully next weekend we can. Oh for sure, that must have been pretty terrifying. I worked from home for just the first day and the blizzard bc everything was closed, and my kids kept asking me a hundred times to go out and sled. Not going to happen lol.

Just following up here. How are you enjoying the new toilet? I am about to hit order on 3 of them so want to get a good thumbs up before I do. Hahaha remember I don’t have a door to my bathroom so we haven’t used it a lot but I like it so far!

It's finally in the 20s today and sunny so it feels downright balmy after this frigid weekend out here on the west coast. We haven't climbed above freezing since Friday morning and have another round of freezing rain coming tomorrow on top of all the snow so no school here either tomorrow. Hopefully wednesday but I'm dubious given the temp isn't supposed to get up over freezing til midday.

Finally took the Christmas decorations down. Feels much more organized but I’m missing the extra lights! Another virtual learning day tomorrow due to the cold. I feel bad for the families who have to scramble for childcare and whatnot but as a childfree teacher I’m not complaining 😂

Our district already had a PD day tomorrow, so I’d taken the day off work to be with DS. I’m hoping the university calls it so I can save the PTO.

Some other schools around us have already closed so I'm wondering if we will too. I'm just happy to sleep in.

I really need to do it this week.

I hope we dont end up with a delay. I'd rather remote school or regular school. Delays mean I have to make breakfast, everyone is thrown off our normal schedule and makes my kid free time shorter 🤣
I have a million errands to run so I'd rather just put it off til Wednesday than feel like I gotta cram everything into a shorter time period. I'd just rather it be all or nothing I suppose

We finally went skiing today. There’s still some super sparse spots, but it felt good to be out there. DD skied with her BFF so I basically got a day date with my boy. We needed that solo time.
H took our partner’s 10 yr old for her very first lesson and she did great and will be able to keep up with us soon.
Now I’m waiting on Pho take out while we finish up some things at the restaurant.
We are still waiting on permits (no thanks to an inept architect…long ass story), and getting a new water heater (thankfully landlord pays for it) so the health inspector can come.
Stress is high and cross all the things that they can be open before rent is due!
