Epic Snow

January 27th, 2016

We had our first snow here for the winter. It was epic...ok so it was 2 inches but that is still a lot for these southern parts where I hang my hat. I did not hear of a run on bread and milk oddly as usually when snow or ice are even hinted at in the forecast...we have a run at the store. You think we are having the blizzards that are affecting the north! And most of us down hear can't understand why people ONLY seem to buy those things out. I mean, we do use milk to cook with, and hubby drinks it with his cookies, but I guess people envision snow and baking...or lots of french toast. 

That does bring me to a side bar, why is it that when it snows we all get the munchies? Or maybe it is just me that does. The sad thing is that hubster and I do not get snow days. We both can work remotely. I telecommute daily and he has the ability when he is sick, or has to be home for some reason. So work does not stop for us. Sad, as I like to go play in the snow myself. Instead, I had to stuff kids into their warmest snow clothes, thankfully we do have cold weather gear, and then send them outside.
Now since they are homeschooled they did have to finish their work first and THEN they could go play but that was achieved at about 10am that day. ha! nothing like snow to motivate you to get your work done!

And while on the topic of my children, their newest odd words they mispronounced are these:

Raveeve= (Revive). As in raveeve me mom I got killed by the frozen goblins! (Disney Infinity playing moment.)
Oddline=Adrenaline. As in, Mom, we use oddline when we get scared and want to run!

Yes my children are homeschooled...don't judge. Words aren't my thingamabob either and I was public schooled!
