Snow = Work

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!  

As soon as the temperatures drop below freezing and the ski lodge I work at can start making snow that will stay on the ground, my days of being a stay-at-home mom are done until spring!  That time is quickly approaching and my days of serving french fries and burgers to kids and their parents will be daily tasks.

While I'm thankful beyond words to have extra income, it's also a time of great sadness to me because my kiddos will have two weeks off for Christmas break and I'll be working every day.  I'll just have to make sure that I save enough energy to play with them after work!  Sledding is on my list as we have several sledding hills around our house and possibly ice skating, too.  Then we have our Christmas baking and decorating still to do.  

The question is, will there be a snow day tomorrow or has the winter storm warning been allowed to expire because the snow has stopped?  I'm crossing my fingers for the expiration and all kids will be in school tomorrow...I need to get out Christmas gifts and plan, figure, and wrap!  

The kids  will be disappointed if there's no snow day as they're preparing by wearing the p.j.s backwards and inside out, they flushed ice cubes down the drain, there's spoons under their pillows, and they kissed more ice cubes and tossed them out the door.  Wonder if it works?  I'll find out tomorrow, won't I?
