Snow Day!

As I suspected, it snowed. Of course, that’s what the weather network said it was going to do. I was doubting it, as I went to bed at midnight (reading a great book!) and there was no snow, nothing but stars in the sky. As my alarm went off at 7am, I took a personal account. My head was pounding. That meant barometric shift, which means it went from beautiful clear skies to wet heavy cloudy skies.  Which meant that there was likely snow on the ground. I peeked out the window, and sure enough tons of snow and more coming.

Today has been a day of making soap, talking to friends on the phone and online, talking to the husband, talking to the kids, I think my jaw is going to fall off.

I’ve been experimenting with this new technology shit, I got an Ipod Touch for Christmas and have been playing with all the features. I cannot beleive how many applications there are for this thing! Now, someone create an app to bring world peace and we’ll be all set.

I’ve found pretty much everything you can imagine. But I’ve been stuck on an idea lately and of course can’t find an application for it.

See, I’ve got this excel spreadsheet that has all our trip information on it. I’ve been adding hotel suggestions, sights that we want to see and other important information. It would be handy to be able to access the information easily, and the perfect tool would be the Touch. I mean, we’ll have Glens laptop to keep in touch with family in case they need us for any reason and to let them know we’re ok (Glens parents will want a play by play to ensure we’re safe), but it wouldn’t be something that we access from the car as we’re hunting for a hotel/B&B etc.  From what I gather it’s as simple as sending the document to my touch, and voila! It will open and I can view it.  Talk about simple!

We made cupcakes today, chocolate ones. I’m such a becky homemaker, they were from Dr.Osters “add milk, shake and pour”. Yeah, I bought some, goes against everything I stand for, but it was nice to have it on hand for a snow day!

Two weeks from today, at this time I will be in an Airport in Boston waiting to board my plane to England. It will be interesting for sure, he lands in Gatwick, I land at Heathrow at the same time, and to say it will be “fun” finding one another is a wild understatement.

FSM help me tomorrow better not be a snow day. 5 days. Stranded at home? With two stir crazy children? I may not survive with out a great deal of scotch. Makes me wish I had some of that yummy local fruit wine, great punch….hooey!
