Snow day #1.  Lazed around most of the day, played Wii with the kids (and husband and nephew) instead of grading, finally did something productive (working with pictures) late in the day.  

I am relegated to the gazelle for the next few days, at least.  

 I've decided that I am going to change my weekly running schedule.  For the past couple years I have not run on Sundays for a lot of reasons, but I think I am going to start running on Sundays and take Monday off running instead.  Monday I didn't run--got lazy and decided to watch the weather/news as they got us pumped for the big storm.  And I'm noticing that it's a pattern the past few weeks that Mondays aren't the best day to run.

hmmmmm. I take Mondays off because I need one day at work that I can work at least 14 hours instead of 10-12. I never noticed that Mondays had a pattern of "worse" - when I lived in Denver I often thought that Fridays/Saturdays were worse (weather-wise), which at the time I thought was lucky -- even though I was a student and lived a few blocks from school. I am sure that having children who have "school-days" would change the pattern immensely ;-).

Enjoy the snow -day and the Gazelle!
