It ended up being anticlimactic as all get out. No snow. No ice to speak of in our area. Well, the dog's outside water bowl froze over, but a gentle kick with my shoe and that thin ice broke pretty easily.
Regardless, of the absence of precipitation there was no school and that was enjoyable enough! I did have to work because when you work from home there are no snow days! But it was a nice productive day and I was so grateful that I work from home and didn't have to worry about driving or getting out of my slippers! That made it into the Gratitude Journal yesterday!
I also took some time yesterday to try my hand at pork empanadas. I pulled some of the pizza crust I made a while ago out of the freezer and whipped up a meat concoction with lots of garlic and spices. Rolled the dough out and made little meat purses. We loved them. They were delicious! And even kind of pretty, but I failed to take a picture! Boo!
In other news:
- It is still cold. 15 degrees this morning. Brrrrrrr!!!!
- Cooper was cooped up yesterday and wasn't a complete jerk. Thank you to TWDITW for not making us completely miserable with your pent up enthusiasm.
- A coffee pot and dryer running in the morning just automatically makes your house sound and feel warmer. Can something sound warmer? I think so.
- I was still cutting my hair just a little bit yesterday.
- I took a hot shower and a hot bath yesterday.
- I hope this cold weather does a number on mosquitos!
That is all I have for now. Stay warm where you are.
