I'm old now

Ok - I'm now another year older, but I'm not supposed to be feeling it already!

I just spent my evening playing 3 games of Guess Who?, 1 game of Clue, 1 game of Life, and 2 games of Sequence with my daughter. We also changed the water for her Triops that we hatched. (Those things are really cool, but kinda creepy too.) Anyway - I think I must have spent too much time hovering over the game boards or something because OUCH! My back is not happy with me right now. Geez - I must be WAY out of shape. Or can I still blame it on the flu??? Ok, maybe not but it was worth a shot!

I honestly wasn't ignoring my son - he was at the neighbor's house. We are all hoping for a snow day tomorrow. If the forecast holds true, then chances are good. But I don't want to get hopes up too much, so I kept bedtime within a half hour of normal. Now it's time for me to go to bed too (so I can stretch out my back) and so I can be cozy under the covers while watching the snow.

And while I'm cozy, Jim will be working until 11 p.m. - so say prayers for all the public servants who don't get snow days. They deserve gratitude, but usually get complaints instead.
