Snow Day

We have a snow day today. I'd take a picture but it's still dark out and I'm still having a hard time loading pictures on this new computer. I'm trying to learn how to do it on Zoom Browser. It's not quite as simple as Picasa.

A snow day works okay for me. I'm making a list for the kids. I'll let them sleep until 10:00. In fact, I know one of the first things they all will do is go on the computer so I'll give them my list right here. Then I know they will see it!

1. Scrub the sauna-I'll do that one
2. Clean the basement so grandkids can play down there-Gretchen
3. Clean hall closet-Jeanie
4. Clean under kitchen sink-Molly
5. Clean refrigerator-I'll do that also
6. Clean upstairs bathroom-don't forget tub-Kaitlin
7. Clean boys bedroom-Mom and Danny
8. Clean bedrooms-Kaitlin, Gretchen, Molly, Jeanie
9. Shovel-Everyone

Doesn't that list look great. On paper it always does. Hopefully as Santa is watching, it will all get done! (Unfortunately, "Santa watching" only works for Danny anymore in this house!)

I probably wouldn't have seen this if you just wrote it on the whiteboard or something.
but good, I was going to tell you I was gonna do the bathroom, it needs a good cleaning

Haha! Good idea.

I'm so excited to come 'home'! So much for 'surprises' huh? Haha! It's too exciting. It was still fun to hear the kid's excitement over the phone when I told them.

Merry Christmas Aunty Anne! I bet my mom has a list similar to this one! :) I think everyone is going to be there for Christmas Eve, plus Grandma and Grandpa, and Uncle Dave and the girls. I can't wait. Hope you enjoy your craziness!
