It's 8:20am...it's a snow day. Like a legit, official, work is closed type of day.  And it's not even snowing yet. It's like Christmas morning to me!

The plan was set in motion last night...let the kids stay up late so they'd sleep in! CHECK!
Wake up to a text from my boss saying no work. CHECK!!
Get another text that school is closed. (Captain Obvious...thank you HRSB) CHECK!
Get up early to rush to Tim's to load up on coffee before the snow started. CHECK!!
Go to Two If By Sea and get a croissant for breakfast. CHECK!!! (Warm and fresh from the oven...BONUS!!)
Get home and enjoy the peace and quiet until the kids get up....ahhhhhhh....silence.

We are awaiting the storm of the year, it's coming...my cat says so. She's a nutjob right now. Claws and a pending storm make for an interesting night. I think I'm prepared...food, candles, I have the heat cranked so if the power goes out its that much longer before we freeze to death. Did I mention coffee? Lots of coffee!!

It's like the karma gods have aligned and set up my day for perfection. Good coffee, great croissant, silence, power (so far), and a paid day off. Life is sweet!

I even have a bottle of wine for when the kids wake up.  For me, not them!! Cabin fever is easier to handle when you're tipsy.

My roof may not stay on...but that's a whole other story.
