45. I'm in the Hudson Valley

Wed Feb 8, 2017, 10:47 PM

Feb 2017

We're expected to get 8-12 inches. Bad mom hasn't gotten the kiddos snowpants this year so I'm trying to summon energy to go to Walmart tonight...Probably not gonna happen. My job is probably going to let us non-clinical staff utilize vacation time so I probably won't go in.

I'm gonna study, cook, play games with the fam and sleep. I love snowstorms when I can't leave the house.

Stay safe!
