no snow, part II

We only got a dusting of snow this morning, and even though the roads were slick, we did not even get a delay. There were a couple fo bus accidents though, so I am sure that next time, we will not be so unlucky. Also, several students are reporting that their buses slid all over the road. Now, kids exaggerate--but parents will complain. I know there was not enough snow to cause a major problem, but the rule is "safety first" and it was not followed today.

so, i did not get as much sleep as humanly possible as i wanted to if we had a snow day. and also, my house did not get scrubbed. however, i did get a lot of sleep. i took a 2 hour nap and then canceled movie night to just get more sleep. i had a massive headache that i couldn't shake and just was so fatigued.

i wasn;t 100% sure if i could wear jeans to school or not, so i didn't---but my only non-wrinkly, clean slacks are apparently way too tight. so now my goal is to fit into these pants well by the end of february. i mean, these pants are hurting me. They were loose on me when i first bought them.

I again discovered today thar mochas improve my mood---i love my students when i haveenough chocolate and coffee in me. so i think that every maroon day, until i can stand my 8th grade class, i will go to MCD and get a mocha--they are so good there. Buzzy's sometimes burns the espresso and the milk. MCD has a machine that makes them the same each time. I would prefer to support local business, but buzzy's has not been worth my money the last 3 times i went there.

so today---after work, since i had to come to work:
1) change out of these tight pants
2) walk dog on really long walk--for real
3)clean bathrooms
4) go to bed
5) wake up at 8 am, meet melissa at 9:30 am at can can.

next week is the b-more aquarium. over and out.

seriously, regular mcd mochas are absolutely not compatible with goal of being a good diabetic. a medium nonfat mocha has 42 (FORTY-TWO) grams of sugar and 280 calories. maybe you could try a regular coffee and see if it does the trick? i don't want to rain on your parade (or your espresso), but no one should drink those things on a regular basis.
