It's really hard to have a snow day this time of year when you're "down to the wire" and still have so much to do.. I don't think you are alone in your frustrations..
I don't really have anything to complain about - even though I still have a lot of things to do.. But if the power goes out again like it did last week and I can't do my Christmas cookie baking with my DGD tomorrow, I'll be complaining BIG time!!!! LOL..
Another thing I am grateful for then! We have ice on top of snow, but nothing like the Northeast, and we haven't lost power. That would be really frightening in this cold.
Off to put the lasagna together and then some cleaning. Good luck with your stuff!
I do have a generator and it is full of gas, but there's two miles of hills and S curves between me and the gas station once the first tank runs out. Not to mention that if I'm out of power the gas station usually is too, so they can't pump gas anyhow. Last time we lost power for 8 days (last year) we had to drive 17 miles before we got to a gas station that had power and still had gas.
I hear ya. At least my kids are healthy thank goodness. But this is the third snow day, and now they aren't going back to school until Jan 5th. We have too much compacted snow and ice on the roads here (they don't plow or sand where I live) to get out of the house, I have Christmas presents sitting at the post office five miles away, and they will only hold them three days before they return them. Snow is supposed to stick around longer than that. The presents I do have I can't get wrapped because my kids are here. I planned to do that on Wednesday. Sigh...
I was thinking about seeing if I can find the local number and call the postmaster (ours is actually a postmistress but she says she doesn't get paid enough to be called a mistress 
) and ask her about it.
