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.

I feel like using the gazelle is just phoning it in...

Snow day #2:  husband and brothers have already been snowblowing for 3+ hours.  Haven't even been to our house yet.  

Could there be a snow day #3 tomorrow?  Dare I dream?

I'm grading today just in case.  But first I will play Mario brothers...

I planned to go out this morning and run on the roads, but it's snowing now and visibility is not great.  Running on roads makes me nervous anyway, not in all areas but anytime I leave my neighborhood...

So I'm going to wait a bit.  If I can't get outside today I'm going to the gym.  I can't deal with the gazelle anymore.
