I grew up in the south, so snow days were rare (and really didn’t require snow)… but I remember how much fun it was to be stuck at home with a glorious day away from school. Now that I live in the north where ice and snow is kept at bay with snowplows and salt (yuck), there is no such thing as a snow-day (not that there has been much snow this winter either). Today was the closest thing to a snow day for me in a long time. I have been too busy to look at the calendar, so I didn’t realize until late last week that we had no classes today (of course, I would have seen it on the syllabus eventually). Amazingly I was ahead on grading, and I was actually able to “play” a little today. Just what I needed…a day with no schedules, no grading…
All I need…
A walk with my buddy 
and an evening to hang out with my beau…
