flaky...

last night as the snow started piling up, a co-worker called and informed me we'd be on a delay this morning--no work 'til 11am, but that we'd be kept posted as conditions changed. by bedtime, deep down, i was 95% sure of cancellation. oh how i relished the thought of a cancelled monthly staff meeting. 8:30am is ungodly to me. plus i haven't had a chance to review all of my client cases yet. i kind of felt like the the kid who doesn't do a stitch of homework because he/she is sure the next day will be a snow day. only i'm not a student anymore.

this morning, i awoke to see snowflakes fying around, pellets of sleet, and an unplowed neighborhood. and no word on postponements/closings. then the phone rang, and today officially became a snow day. yay!!!!!

moments earlier, i had started to worry. you see, my boss originally hails from snow country--(i.e. syracuse, new york). and she'd mentioned a few weeks ago that she's usually able to make it into the office when there's snow and ice. uh oh.

but it all worked out in the end. how will i spend the rest of this flaky day?

1) stay in these warm flannel pajamas.

2) drink hot chocolate with baileys. mmmm. so dreamy.

3) or perhaps drink a steaming cup of oregon chai & soymilk. heavenly.

4) fix myself a grilled cheese sandwich. delicious.

5) wrap myself in a warm blanket and park myself in front of the t.v. to watch movies. 6)knit.

work? eh? FUGGEDDABOUTIT!
