What to do on a snow day!?! Anything just to keep my sanity ... Actually my kids are getting old enough that it's not too overwhelming to have them home all day, especially if I don't have any important meetings (breakfasts) or anything. :)
So I laid in bed until 10:00 watching the news and Regis and Kelly - hardly ever get to see them! Then Abbi and I decided to go to Bob Evans for a really late breakfast! I had awesome cinnamon creme pancakes, my mouth is watering just thinking about them again. Then we headed to Kohl's to do a return, and of course shopping since we had a "credit" for our returns. Then I had to make a quick stop at Target for another return and more necessities, like CLR for the shower upstairs, new bedding for Abbi's room that is a continual work in process (pics when it's complete in the summer), laundry detergent for my front load washer - can't find HE detergent just anywhere, and of course some entertaining games for Abbi. Then I decided to treat both her and myself, and I took her to LA Nails. What a fun Mother/Daughter thing to do. Her eyes just lit up when I suggested it. I got a very plain jane mauvish/brown, but Abbi picked a wonderful Little Girl Pink, and then I asked about some fancy design on each nail, and the lady was so excited to be given the permission! She got cool white swirls and dots, and a swipe of sparkle on each nail, all for only a measly $3.00 more! So for a cool $24.00, her & I left LA Nails a lot happier!
My last stop before heading home, was at Jiffy Lube. I'm driving Alli's car this week, since she and 7 other college women took my vehicle to Florida for Spring Break. Don't worry they didn't all go in my car, there was another vehicle making the trip. I talked to her this morning, well about 10:30 before my late breakfast, and she said it was very hot and they were on the beach. TOO BAD! Anyway, back to Jiffy Lube ... I noticed the "change oil" sticker on her window, put her about 9,000 miles since her last oil change. HMMMM ... do you think maybe this should've been done a long time ago? She said something lame, like she's been too busy getting good grades in college. So proud of her! So, with the oil change complete, we headed home.
Now we're just hanging out enjoying the quiet. Kevin is outside riding snowmobile with a friend, and Mitch headed to a friends house after he plowed the driveway.
Here's a picture of Abbi's nails. And also the website she showed me - A Nickelodean Cruise. Boy am I tempted!!!!
