I just got the best email EVER!

THIS POST MAY CONTAIN AFFILIATE LINKS. I MAY EARN FROM QUALIFYING PURCHASES.

Hi all-

If you haven’t heard already- the school is open today until 5:30. We hope to see you!

I don’t think you could have seen the smoke on my heels fast enough, or me get the girls dressed as fast as I did.

I’m so thankful for my smart phone; so I saw this email almost immediately.

And, the girls?  They were more than thrilled to get ready and go to school…they need a break from me, too.

Love the girls…love being home…hate being stuck inside and not able to go anywhere.

  1. Oh, I was SO excited that there was school today. First day all week.

    1. Local schools are still closed here, but thankfully their daycare is open!

      (So, I’m not at work, but the girls are happy at school!)

  3. LOL… school is never canceled here, I bet if it were me in your shoes I wouldn’t have even gotten myself dressed. Have a nice little ‘me’ day!

    1. Oh, we are on day 4 of the local schools being closed. There is a lot of ice. Actually, there was a lot of ice when I was driving there, so I totally get why it’s canceled.

      I only got dress because it’s so cold outside:) And, I had to run into the printer to proof a job.

  4. Yayyyy for school today. It means my brother and sister in law are in school too. Atlanta needs to do a better job of preparing for bad weather. I think snow should be expected every year now in most areas in the south.

    Blessing

    1. I should clarify..their daycare is open. Most of the local schools are still closed today.

      Yes, it should be expected, but it would cost the city a fortune to purchase the machinery and the man power for “just in case.”

      I don’t fault the city at all. It’s ice and it’s hard to get rid of.

  5. What cutie! School was canceled here today AGAIN! I hope this snow hurries up and melts a little faster!!!

    1. Me, too! And, it’s really not even the snow here that’s a problem. It’s the ice.

      I was in a neighbors backyard (they shared some firewood) and I literally could have skated back there. There are neighborhoods that are solid ice at the entrance, too.

  6. Glad the girls we able to go to school today. I am sure they missed their friends. A special thanks for the Izzy picture.

    1. Yes, there was only one SCREAMING fit…want to guess who it was?

      You’re welcome. We’re keeping her alive.

  7. Yep, kids get antsy and want to go back. Can’t blame them or you.

  8. They need their playtime too! 🙂 It’s healthy for all involved! LOL! 🙂 I have been reading everything on Google reader. I can’t believe how big the girls are getting :)!

    1. They are definitely getting big. I don’t have “my baby” anymore.

  9. so what are you doing home alone?? tell me you are taking a nap? please!

    bc that’s so what i would be doing.

    but i am lazy like that 🙂

    1. Nope..no nap. Cleaned some dishes and loaded the washer…and did laundry.

      Maybe a nap tomorrow. Just saw that school (work) is closed tomorrow, too. But, at least the girls will go in!

  10. Glad yall are getting back to normal! Do you get to keep your winter break in Feb or is that still up in the air?

    1. Well, my school is still closed…and just saw it’s closed tomorrow, too.

      Haven’t heard anything (and checked the site)…nothing mentioned about February officially, but they said on the news that they “have a built in break” they can use. But, this has not been a break. And, I have a plane ticket for the break in February, so now I’m going to have to take a sick day if they make us go in February (and, that will mean NO DAYS OFF until April!)

  11. That cracked me up. We had a cold blast last weekend – nothing like you guys, but enough to keep us indoors. All. Weekend. Long.

    Do you hear my pain?

    1. Yep. Totally do. It’s still only like 25 here today. And, school just got canceled tomorrow! (Mine…where I work, not the girls’).

  12. Yay for some Mommy alone time! And I have to say I just LOVE her hat!! 😉 xo Hope you are doing well!

    1. Yeah, this really awesome person (you!) made it for her! They both still wear their hats:)

  13. I was very excited to see the daycare back to *almost* normal hours again too! Woohoo!!

  14. That school time is great for you AND the girls! Hope you all enjoyed it!

  15. So glad you’re all getting a break from each other… I remember what it was like when I lived in New England.
    Love the photo of Isabelle, but I always love pics of your girls.

    1. It was nice to get back to work…sort of…but that’s a whole ‘nother storey.

      Thanks…you are too sweet.
