The Budge Bunch

This has been a long week.

I have a major head cold.

Was told yucky health news about a member of my family.

Jake had after school detention for the first time ever. He is still horrified.

Chloe has some funky finger infection that the school nurse had to call and tell me about, because I didn’t stop to look at her finger when she told me it hurt. She told me while we were rushing to the bus with a toasted waffle in her hand and she was also trying to tell me she had to hide the waffle because there is no eating allowed on the bus. So I stuffed it in her bag, and told her to duck down while she ate and forgot to look at her hurt finger.

Yeah. It’s been a week.

But! I did cut ten inches off of my hair and donated it today!

That. That is a good thing.

Cheers to the end of the week! How about you? How has your week been?

I freaking slept in this morning! It was the best. I SO needed it. I am a tad bit burnt out with too many projects going on and not enough hours in the day. I’m sure you know exactly how I feel. Those few extra hours this morning made me feel like a new person.

Because of the snow, everything we had to do today was cancelled. WE HAD NOTHING TO DO! Yes, I am yelling. This is some that never happens. Our weekends are usually filled up with activities, birthday parties, and running around leaving us wondering where the weekend went on Sunday night. Sometimes a good snow day is just what we need.

The kids had a blast playing outside. Their friends came over to go sledding, and lots of hot chocolate was had by all. We ended the day with the kids favorite baked ziti for dinner and banana bread for dessert. Jake and Chloe are exhausted and are fighting about which movie to watch for our family movie night.

Living in New England I am used to snow days. Prayed for them when I was a kid. As an adult I find myself enjoying them just as much. Do you have snow days where you live? Do you love them or dread them?
