Snow Days

So I got to work AOK on Thursday. It was snowing a bit at our house but nothing when I got to work around 6:30. A couple hours later, my boss came in and (sweetie that he is) sent me home, saying it was getting nasty out and I should work from home. So I headed home. It was pretty bad out, and I was hugely glad once again for my 4WD. Little cars were all over the roads, especially on hills. I ended up giving a mom and her son a ride home. Their car had gone into a ditch and they were trying to walk back home. Anyhoo, my normal 25 minute drive was closer to an hour. Not the worst ever, but not fun.

We had decided to keep Tabby at home, so she and I worked and played together all day. She was in a great mood and we had a wonderful time. We watched movies in bed. We made tea. We made snowfall ice cream. We drew pictures. Today, happily, was more of the same. I also introduced Tabby to the world of organization. My CD pages showed up around noon and we spent a happy couple of hours putting CDs into sleeves. This was after an unhappy first hour when she kept knocking over my categorized stacks of CDs before I realized I had to involve her in the process. I think I may have a future organization junkie on my hands. Yay!

While I am not in a great position to take her out to play in the snow, she and Daddy and Loki got a couple of sessions in. Tabby had quite a good time and was very reluctant to come in … even though she was freezing cold.

So I'm pretty sure I'll have a lot of work come Monday, but I had a really nice couple of days with my baby girl.

PS: To follow up on the whole fifths disease thing, I, like 50% of adults, was already immune.
