I don’t think it’s stopped raining in over 24 hours. We still have 3 days to go. This is stupid. Bring back last week’s cold. That was better than this soggy floody mess.

We have rain/ice. School is canceled here too. Grateful I can WFH and we don't have anywhere we have to go. We put salt down last night and our driveway was still pretty icy. H said the roads were terrible

They called an e-learning day for my middle schooler while he was already at the bus stop. The high school kid still had to go

Oh and now I’ll add The Color Purple snubs seeing that the movie was able to be nominated. They did get a supporting actress nomination
Anyway I’m not surprised but disappointed still

H said the roads were terrible I went to the gym a little after 5 am and the main roads were good. Then once I got back, after 6:30, we got the cancel call. They had the high school kids on the buses and had to turn around. They were receiving complaints at how icy the sidewalks and driveways were so it wasn't safe for kids to get to the bus stops. Luckily I can work from home.

Yeah h just called and said the roads are cleared now so delay was probably the way to go but I’m sure they didn’t want to take that risk and I’m ok with that I hate ice

We're getting a brief break in the rain today, it will be back tomorrow. DS2 is still coughing a little bit, but he's better and able to go to school today, thank goodness. He's pissed about it, but oh well.
Of course H and I both woke up with sore throats, so I nixed my in-office plans and I'm WFH unless I start to feel worse. Ugh. Fingers crossed DS1 doesn't get sick, it is so hard to miss even a day of high school, it feels like they cover so much and he gets stressed about it.

i'm so fucking pissed off with two different Etsy sellers. Things i've bought for DD's party THIS WEEKEND aren't here yet because they've left it in "pre-shipment" for 13 days and 5 days (so far). Now neither one is responding to me.

DS1 had an ice day today! DS2 has been snuggled up with him all morning. More hot chocolate is in our future this evening.
Poor SS still had school so I had to drive him across town this morning. It’s cleared up now thankfully.

My birthday is in April and I have spent the better part of the morning day dreaming about my birthday dinner. I think I am done with January.

JMO.

I’m on one of the most contentious calls I’ve ever been on. That plus the three side conversations I’m having about said call are stressing me out.
I need to Oprah “you get a gummy, and you get a gummy” all the people on this call.

Listen I liked Barbie but Ryan Gosling's was not an Oscar worthy performance. I don't so much think Margot Robbie was slighted as I am thinking- why did HE get nominated?

If none of them got nominated I would be ok acting wise I guess. I do think Margot was a great Barbie but I’m also aware Barbie is not the typical Oscar movie. But the fact that Ryan got nominated over her and he got nominated for his song is just proving the plot BUT also it was because it was a thought provoking movie that was the highest grossing movie and I think that is or at least should be an Oscar movie

I think I'm the only person in the world who did not like Barbie. It came across as trying too hard, or something. I don't know, it didn't live up to the hype for me at all.
