Well, I accomplished everything I posted this morning except I only exercised for 25 minutes this afternoon vs. the 60 I was hoping for. We ended up going out today after all, after lunch. We took cookies to Daddy at work and then went to the store for a few things. We are projected to get 1-3 inches of snow overnight and into tomorrow and with the lack of trucks that salt and clear the roads here, it's best not to go far if you don't have to; so with that in mind, I needed to get a few things in case I couldn't go tomorrow.
It's still strange to me how everyone reacts to snow/ice/sleet here in GA, being that I grew up in Michigan. LOL But having been here for ten years now, I understand why they do. If there are no trucks to clear and salt the roads, how could they be safe to drive on? Especially with the amount of traffic here in the metro Atlanta area. But I still laugh when I see school closings posted and there's only a half an inch of snow on the ground! Hey, that's another good thing about homeschooling-you don't have to worry about the weather. When there's an ice storm, you can still have school and when it's a beautiful day you can go out and enjoy it! Right? : )
