Facebook saves the day!

Yesterday morning I continue to push the snooze way past where I need to wake up in order to wash my hair. Thankfully I didn't need to wash my hair, but I still needed to get up. Instead of hopping in the shower I meander out to my computer to check my email and facebook. Thank goodness I did! I saw a status update from an old friend who is now a teacher in Lexington. Turns out that Fayette County had a snow day. That got me thinking... "I wonder if I have a snow day too?" And what do you know? I did! I look outside at this point to see just how much snow had fallen. Last I heard, we weren't supposed to get more than maybe one inch. According to my eyes the forecast wasn't far off. But nevertheless school was canceled in Bullitt County. At this point I was glad I hadn't gotten in the shower or eaten breakfast. So I went back to sleep... until 10am!! If it weren't for facebook, I would have ended up at school wondering where everyone else was!!

Now you may think that a snow day is grand. Well it can be, but it's very frustrating to have school canceled for apparently no reason (as the snow was gone by 9am). I had scheduled the computer lab for 2 of my classes and now I don't think I'll be able to get the labs this morning. I also had planned for a rewards day for one of my classes today, but I didn't give the students any notice about bringing snacks, so that will have to be moved to next week. Snow days through off a lot of plans. But they can sometimes come with some good.

If that wasn't enough for facebook to help me out in the morning, it comes through again!  My good friend Molly saw my facebook update about not having school. She then texts me to ask if I want to hang out if I get bored doing nothing on my snow day. Well of course I want to hang out with Molly!! We end up enjoying some of the second DVD of Pride and Prejudice with the one and only Colin Firth. Amazing! Unfortunately I had to leave before it was over. Cheerleading practice called...

Cheerleaders frustrate me. Especially 8th grade cheerleaders. That's all I really want to say on that subject before I say something I probably shouldn't.

Thankfully the rest of my evening was awesome. I headed over to the Cassin Casa to watch some LOST! God has really blessed me with this group of friends. Jessica made some fabulous homemade chicken noodle soup. I wish I had her motivation to cook homemade food all the time. But anyways, LOST was amazing. I love being in a group when watching it just so we can talk about all our theories. It also helps when I can't remember things from seasons past. After LOST, some other folk from Sojourn stopped by. It's great to hang out with new people or people I don't see much outside of the 930.

Speaking of the 930, tonight is going to be a great night! Dirt Poor Robins is performing at a CD release party. Dave Moisan is going to be opening. It should be an amazing concert. I'm really looking forward to it and getting to hang out with my twin, Jackie. Now, if only I can get through this school day and cheerleading practice (competition tomorrow!)! Prayers are appreciated. :)
