so much for that plan

I woke up to this

It’s about 4-5 inches and school, naturally, has been cancelled.

There go my plans for today. I had a full day planned too.

Get Havoc on the bus

Go to the gym

Take a shower

Get Mayhem on the bus

Photo document putting purple streaks in my hair for a Tuesday Tribute tomorrow (I’m sure I am not the only one who arranges the blog fodder opportunities in her life to coincide with appropriate memes)

Sweep & mop the house

Sew a padded cover for my camera strap & work out a pattern for a camera cozy (I love my Crumpler bucket but it’s just too big for about half my purses. I need something snug but not bulky, more to protect from scratching than impact)

Get caught up on blog reading

Now the only thing I am likely to manage is ‘take a shower’. The roads are probably fine at this point but body pump was cancelled & I don’t feel like making the effort just to run on the treadmill.  Hair coloring is impossible (boys wanting to touch the dye), sewing is more of a challenge than I am up for (constant interruptions), there is no point in sweeping & mopping when there are 2 people walking behind you scattering crumbs and juice splatters. Blog reading might happen in spurts though.

Havoc wants to shovel a path for the cats to get to their food bowl.  Mayhem is entirely uninterested in playing in the snow, but we might get a bit of sledding in after lunch, depending on how things go. 

Mostly though I expect there will be a great many 5 minute trips outside to justify endless requests for hot chocolate
