I worked a half day and enjoyed a snow day with the rest of it.
Binged watched "A French Village" and made squash soup for dinner. For exercise I shoveled the driveway which had to be enough since they closed the gym. It was pouring rain when I went out to get ahead of the freeze. Imagine 3 inches of a heavy waterlogged white mess. I was careful to lift with my legs to not screw up my back.
This morning everything is covered in ice and I am Febru'WEARY.
Thankfully in seven days we're off to San Francisco to escape New England winter for a respite. The average temperatures have been 65 -70; which is close to perfection in my mind.I want it to be a great trip for my family. I've been there a number of times - lived in CA for a few years in the 90s, but it will be a first trip for the girls and I'm excited to show them around.
We're doing all the usual touristy things (Muir Woods, Alcatraz, cable cars, Golden Gate.... ) and the highlight of their trip - a stroll by the "Full House" house so my little one can make a movie. She's been obsessed with the idea since we made the decision to go. We'll rent a car one day to head south to Monterrey, but that's it. No stress right?
DH is still a little off, but at least now I know why... a disagreement with a coworker that hurt his feelings and rather than dealing with it he's been stewing... Now that it's out in the open I hope he'll come to some sort of happy resolution and get excited for vacation.

I'd love to visit Alcatraz! You will have to take some pictures and post them for us :) My husband does the same thing, stews and mopes and won't tell me what's wrong, and right before I strangle him with my bare hands, he finally tells me what has been bugging him for something like 2 weeks.
Vacation sounds great! February is a GREAT time to get a break from living in the NE, enjoy.
Such a bummer to hear a dust-up could cause emotional fallout for DAYS. Life is too short! As my husband told me once - we don't have enough days to waste any on ill feelings. I'm still learning this, but, and, it helps a lot.
I'm not loving having to shovel so much this winter. But at least it is exercise!
Have a good time on vacation :)
