Snow Days

Snow Days

Snow Days

We all know why kids love it when the snow is falling and sticking on the ground; it pretty much guarantees a school cancellation. But what about us adults?  Most of us are working, sitting in our offices and looking out of the window wondering when it will stop. On top of that, we are worrying about the roads for the drive home and the mess of the slush getting tracked into the house.  It seems like, as you become older, the snow becomes more of a burden rather than a blessing.  It made me think of what I would do if I could have “snow days” as an adult. Would I go outside and make snow angels or go sled riding up at Oglebay?  Although the sound of those two things are youthful and inviting, I can pretty much guarantee I wouldn’t be anywhere outside.  If I had a snow day, I would most likely be in the house with my sweats and wool socks on. I would spend the day snuggled up on the couch watching Lifetime movies.  Have you ever wished for an adult “snow day”? What would you spend your snowy day doing?
