Guess I'd better turn in. Kids want to sleep in tomorrow but I said they have to be up and done eating before I leave for work. I'm hoping to go in earlier so I can get home earlier but we'll see how it goes.
morning
My goals for today- laundry sorted and put away, lesson plans typed (for the next 2 weeks), clean the kitchen, make dinner (taco soup in the crock pot), and get 5 cards made
but exercising first. not doing my normal run- too cold outside so on the treadmill it is (I want to get it done first thing and not wait until this afternoon when it is a bit warmer) but doing something different to try
exercise done- laundry is sorted and hung (finally). I even got my garment rack set up that I bought...last summer to do this. So, hopefully I can keep up with the laundry now
I am taking a quick break to check email/fb/etc. Then, I'll take about 30 to work in the kitchen 30 for a break and then work on lesson plans for a bit

Morning chickies! Currently -22C (-7F), but -29 (-20F) with the windchill.
Definitely going to have to bundle up to go to work!
BRRRRRRRRR!
We're not nearly as cold as you are, but it was really cold standing at the bus stop this morning and afternoon since the cold front came in yesterday. I thought that we had an agreement that you kept the cold air up on your side of the border?
Just got back from being out for a bit and there is a significant temperature drop from when I left this morning. It snowed some big fluffy flakes to, but not enough to make me happy about it.

So are your kiddos off? I'd give you all of the snow we ever get here if I could! I think that we're supposed to get less than an inch tonight and less than an inch tomorrow night?

The kids are off school, but I still have to work, so no 3 day weekend for me. I wish...
I really wish that SU would sell stamp sets that coordinated with their punches instead of putting one stamp that coordinates with a punch with various stamp sets where you may not want the stamp set. Kind of like PTI did with their mat stack dies and matching stamp sets. For example I'd love the stamp that coordinates with the modern label punch in the "Tea Shoppe" stamp set after seeing it used on a card, but I don't want any other stamps in that set and it's a $28 set. I like the 3 stamps that match the 3 different punches in the "A Fitting Occasion" stamp set too, especially the polka dot one that matches the modern label punch, but not enough to spend $28 for them. Now if they made a Modern Label Punch stamp set, I'd be all over that!
Just went out and saw the twins. (and their foster child). The little girl stood at the door waiting for me so she could ask me if I would play with them. I had just started eating so I said I would get over there when I finished. I got there and they were leaving. The little girl was not happy with me! lol

I agree 100%. Seems like they do a lot of "Hey, this set coordinates with these 8 punches" rather than "Hey, everything in this set coordinates with XYZ punch."
Where do the kids go when you have to work and they're off?
DS is hanging out at a friends house, DD1 came to work with me, and DD2 is in daycare and they are open today. If they'd been closed, she would have been my excuse to take the day off.

That's nice that you can bring her to work with you. Does she enjoy it or is she bored easily?
DH and I were talking about when I eventually go back to work when dd is in school (assuming I can ever find a job) and how we'd have to find some type of before/after school care.

She used to get bored when she was younger, but now she's fairly good at keeping herself entertained. She loves to read so she'll do that, and she saves her homework so she can work on it here. And my boss pays her to clean the office while she's here too, which she loves! She's the "money burning a hole in pocket" type so she'll want to hit up Target before the week's over.

What a great boss.
I have 2 of those too! Now they've learned if they combine their money they can get something bigger or faster.

He's the best boss ever. Ever!
That's funny about combining money! My oldest 2 would NEVER do that. They are missing the gene that allows them to cooperate and share. Plus, DS is a saver and she's not, so...
card made- that makes 15 since Dec. 30. I don't feel guilty now for buying that unity stamp yesterday from BST (I was only one card short). I am going for another 15 before buying another (and I need to get stuff listed on ebay)
Okay- lessons for this week are typed up- need to print out and then I am done! May work on next week's typing later. Need to fix dinner and maybe make another card.
I wish...
