My favorite part of the snow day? The moment I realized I was done shoveling the snow for this snowstorm!

Well it definitely is not having a really long driveway with two entrances and no snow blow/plow. Love it the rest of the year.

My favorite part of the snow day is insulting my sister for not being at work...cause I don't get any snow days. We are on board 24/7/365....366 in a leap year. I did go home a little early and fell asleep watching TCM.

I liked being among the group on "non-essential" employees at my work so I didn't have to drive to KC and back. I spent a couple of hours shoveling my long, sloped driveway and sidewalk and then watched movies the rest of the afternoon. I took a Lortab and an NSAID before I went to bed (which are OK to take together) and now I'm ready to shovel the snow the road crews plowed back up onto my sidewalk so I can head to my senior citizen's house so I can shovel her driveway and sidewalk. And my employer is still closed today. And I am still non-essential so this makes a great 4-day weekend!!!

Getting a good workout for free. Shoveled snow for six hours and even then just barley got my car out of the driveway. Of course a four pack of Sixth Glass, a couple diclofenac, and a couple viocodin ( and before you get all judgemental, I have a prescription from my doctor) made it all more enjoyable with the two blown discs in my lower back. Oh, and of course, I shoveled the sidewalk and my elderly neighbors sidewalk before the sidewalk police started writing tickets. Hey, I am just thankful to the good Lord that I still can.
