5 Snow Days and Counting

After two weeks off school for winter break, we haven't returned for a full day yet. We've had 5 snow days in the past week and half and the two days we went to school we didn't go the full day. I'm starting to go a little stir crazy. I enjoy my time off but I'm missing my little ones. They are funny and sweet. Going to work gives structure to my day and my life. I have watched 2 full seasons of Friends, 2 Elvis movies, and other random shows on tv. I have worked on crocheting a blanket. I have made cashew chicken and chocolate truffles. I have read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I am ready to return to work. It could be that I don't have internet access at my house that is contributing to my stir craziness. I can't surf the web for random things to entertain myself with. I also can't check match.com for any new matches. I decided to try online dating about 2 weeks ago and I've already met some interesting characters. Some nice ones but the majority of them have one thing on thier minds. HOT TUBS! I'm fairly certain if you mention wanting to spend time in a hot tub before I've even met you or better yet tell me that hot tubbing is a hobby, we're not going to meet. Hot tubs = sleazey. Maybe I've just watched too many episodes of the Real World that involve sleazey happenings in a hot tub. I'm trying to be optimistic and put myself out there. It isn't easy but at least it's pretty entertaining.
I'm starting this blog as a place to write about the random things in my life. It might not be entertaining to anyone else. But I need something to use my brain on. So check back for more. I hope to include pictures of my projects I'm working on, recipes that I've tried, and funny stories from my kids and attempt at dating.
