Snow Days and a Lesson

We had two snow days two weeks ago (for snow that never arrived), and now I have two snow days again (for real snow this time, 4 inches). Here's what I've learned about myself over 4 days in 3 weeks that I've been trapped at home.

• On a normal basis, I structure and use my time very well
• By the second snow day, I waste unbelievable amounts of time
• I love to bake
• I'm addicted to salty snacks and really cannot put them away
• I am incredibly impatient
• "Sleeping in" is a thing of the past that no longer exists
• I only clean when I'm on a time frame. Snow day = no time frame = no cleaning
• By the second snow day I am going crazy which makes my husband go crazy which leads to unnecessary irritability

In the end, maybe snow days aren't the best for me. Let's hope this melts soon.

On a positive note, I did complete the next two weeks worth of assignments for my class and print about four weeks of reading lessons for my after-school job.

Frustrating

It's been so long since I've posted, I almost forgot how to do this...

Anyway, I took Eric to the airport tonight. He'll be in Utah all week SKIING! While I am a bit jealous, I'm super excited for him :) I normally have plenty to do, but my after-school job doesn't start back until next Monday, and my master's class doesn't start back up until next Saturday. So this week is just the day-time job.

The past few weeks have been pretty emotional for me, but I've had to just keep going, going, going. With Eric gone, and work hours at a minimum, I knew this week might be rough. So tonight on the way home from the airport I stopped to rent a movie at a RedBox. Here's the story:

I had a movie of Eric's to return: District 9. I tried to return it, but it said the RedBox was full and could not accept returns. So I rented one for myself, Julie and Julia. After the box had given me my video I figured it has one open space, so I tried to return Eric's movie again. Success!

Came home, played on facebook, talked to a girlfriend for a while and finally decided to put it my movie. What? I still have District 9? Which leaves only one conclusion, I rented AND RETURNED Julie and Julia.
