Snow Day!
Snow Day! | Lester L. Laminack
32 posts | 1 read | 1 to read
Someone is very, very excited about the possibility of missing school due to snow, and plans a whole day of sledding, building forts, reading, and sipping hot chocolate rather than going to school for that test on chapter ten.

Snow Day! | Lester L. Laminack
post image

It wasn‘t supposed to be quite this much of a storm. Two of my clients today come from a distance, so they both want to reschedule. The third said she has too many hills to travel. So it‘s a #snowday for me! On deck: reading, reviews, #audiopuzzling, and I should work on our taxes too. Probably I‘ll get to do the snow blower also, since Mr. B still has a lot of shingles pain. How early can I start drinking wine??

Erinreadsthebooks Minus the tax stuff and shingle pain for Mr. B, your day sounds excellent! Enjoy! 5y

starlight97 It's never too early for wine! 🍷😁 5y
julesG We call it “Frühschoppen" (Schoppen being a large bowl-like glass for wine of half a pint up to pint volume) - early glass of wine (or beer), can be had for breakfast. ? 5y
Cathythoughts Sounds like a lot .... bring on the wine 😉❤️ 5y
Cathythoughts @julesG yes , and they all appear to be on the wine & beer for breakfast in the historical novels.... 👍🏻🤷🏻‍♀️ 5y
sk888888 All wine restrictions are OFF during a snow event. Especially if you‘re moving snow (even with a snowblower)! 5y
dragondrool It's five o'clock somewhere! 5y
BarbaraTheBibliophage I ended up going in for one client, while the snow lightened up and the roads were clear. So it‘s good I didn‘t start drinking too early. Just had a Kahlúa hot chocolate, though. Now I need to make dinner. Thanks for all the good ideas! @dragondrool @sk888888 @Cathythoughts @julesG @starlight97 @Kshakal @Judybskt @Mdargusch @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @ErinGoBragh1011 @Erinreadsthebooks 5y

The second snow day in a row here in Yorkshire where the Beast from the East has hit with a vengeance. With the car going nowhere and a 1 year old to look after, not much reading is getting done. Combined with a bit of a rubbish time at work and said 1 year old‘s refusal to sleep at night, I‘ve barely picked up a book all week.
Hope all the other UK Littens are staying safe in the snow and enjoying some bookish snow days! ❄️📚

TrishB We have no snow! Very rare in Liverpool. Very cold though!! 6y
kezzlou85 We're dealing with high winds causing massive snow drifts here. Second snow day for the schools here. ❄ 6y
quietlycuriouskate We've got persistent snow-drizzle. It's blowing around as much as settling, though. It's like being in a snow globe! 6y

Even the sunny south is having a snow day. I‘m in the 4-8 book swath. I will say the big puffy white flakes are beautiful (from inside) but Heat Miser must be having a fit right about now! And my very southern dog didn‘t appreciate going outside at all and the very southern cat put exactly one paw into the snow on the deck before turning right around and coming in. 😂😂😂

It is town voting day here in New Hampshire. So I am here keeping the library open because we are in the same building where voting happens. It's actually kind of fun, we made cookies for patron appreciation, and a few people have wandered in. Mostly we're all just hanging out and visiting.

Well-ReadNeck And, if you got snowed in, what better place to be than a library! 7y

A few hours ago, the school district already called it as a snow day for tomorrow! Still awaiting the blizzard but it's supposed to be 12-18 inches when it's done. I'm thinking of the books I'll get to read and in my mind, which ones! Of course we'll also have to shovel but.... ❄️📚❄️📚❄️

CrowCAH Brrr cold. Lucky duck, to work I go tomorrow. 7y

ValerieAndBooks @CrowCAH aww, hope it's a good day tomorrow for you anyway 😊! 7y
ValerieAndBooks @Penny_LiteraryHoarders @asiriusreader @Lmstraubie yes, the nice thing about big snow days is that there's really only two things you can do: read and shovel! 7y
ValerieAndBooks @kspenmoll yes, I'm a little worried about the power as well, we have a lot of trees where we are and they can fall on power lines (or worse)! A couple years ago we had a bad summer storm that had a tree fall on my son's car, totaling it. Fingers crossed for you that all you really have to do is read -- and stay warm and safe! 7y
CrowCAH @ValerieAndBooks it should be; it's my weekly library run! 😁📚 7y

CrowCAH @ValerieAndBooks you betchya! 😁 7y
ValerieAndBooks @Cinfhen Thanks! that's right -- snow in Israel is pretty rare isn't it? Now I'm remembering another drawback of snow days here -- our district doesn't build them in at all each school year, so when snow days happen another day is automatically tacked on in June. This is only our second snow day though ! 😊👍 7y

They're already scrolling school closings for tomorrow on the news, so methinks my office will be closed, too. It was around sixty degrees today, and in 24 hours we'll be on the other side of what could be 8-12"!

I hope to consume coffee and books, in between digging my car out of what's expected to be wet & heavy snow.

Winter. Bah! ❄️ ⛄️

Still mostly sleet in NW Atlanta suburbs, but 2-4" of snow predicted. This native Yankee is hoping we get every bit of that. I miss snow! Hunkered down with books & wine.

Notafraidofwords Are people freaking out over 4 inches of snow there or are people good? 7y
Theresa @Notafraidofwords Kind of. Grocery store shelves are pretty bare. The mayor & governor wanted everyone home & off the roads by 4:00pm today. They learned their lesson a couple years ago when 2" of snow left thousands stuck on the interstates. They've bought more equipment since then. ? 7y
