Writer's Block: Superbowl madness or sadness?

[Error: unknown template qotd]
I will watch nothing of the superbowl because I am not a football fan.  I think it is a lot of rich people purchasing people's lives from them for exorbitant fees, then charging other people to watch them try to kill each other.

It is boring and stupid and I would rather watch paint dry.

I do enjoy watching the commercials, however.  (I'll see them later, when the game is done.)

Well, well....Look what's coming....*(maybe)

A WINTER STORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM MONDAY MORNING
THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON.

* SNOW WILL SPREAD ACROSS SOUTHEAST MINNESOTA AND NORTHEAST IOWA
THIS AFTERNOON...AND THEN CONTINUE THROUGH TUESDAY. BETWEEN 6 AND
8 INCHES OF SNOW WILL LIKELY FALL FROM MONDAY INTO TUESDAY
MORNING.

* TOTAL SNOW ACCUMULATIONS OF 8 TO 10 INCHES ARE EXPECTED FROM
THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TUESDAY.


Wouldn't it be just soooo sad if we had snow days Monday and Tuesday?  (NOT!!!)

I'd LOVE a couple of snow days to work on the house.  God knows it needs all the help it can get.

Why is it?

Why is it that I always run out of money before the bills are all paid and I always run out of steam before the household chores are all done?

Today, I cleaned the "kitty litter box corner."  It was horrible.  I don't always move the boxes away from the walls when I clean that area, and today, I completely emptied the corner, cleaned the boxes, swept the floor, and rearranged things in a more suitable fashion.  I have not yet mopped.  I was waiting to be done with laundry and cooking before I did the mopping.  Primarily because I cannot cook without dropping SOMETHING on the floor.  Sigh.

Today I made a huge roaster of lasagna (from scratch) and a big pot of chicken noodle casserole.  Both turned out nicely, if I do say so myself. 

I just finished doing up the last of the dishes--I had done a ton of other dishes before and during the cooking spree.  All that were left were the last dregs from packaging the food up to send to Jim and DeAnn's house and to put away in my fridge.  I promised Jonah VanProosdy that I would bring him in a slice of lasagna the next time I made it, so I have already packaged a piece up for him.

Now I am tired and I do not feel like doing anything else. 

I am afraid to NOT do something else, for fear that there will be no snow day--even though it is looking very promising at this point, since the storm is coming through our "sweet spot."  They are now saying possibly over 12".  Yuck.  BUT--I can deal with it if it will give me a couple of days off  to continue working on this house.

The thing about school--even though I love my job and adore my boss and kids--I am DONE when I come home from school in the afternoon.  I have barely enough energy left to warm up something to eat.    Then when the weekend comes, it is like I have to have at least half of Saturday just to sleep in because I am soooo tired.

I think if I had three day weekends, it would be ideal.  You'd be less tired and stressed because you'd only work four days instead of five, and you'd have one day to rest and recover and two to do all the crap that needs to be done at home.  Maybe you could even squeeze in a little bit of fun...once a month or so....

Who am I kidding?  Who has time for fun???

Besides Claire that is.  LOL.
