Snow day like a snow day

So today was my day off this week. I almost got talked in (by myself) to going in to do some paperwork I'm meant to be scheduled for but haven't been this week (thanks Jay) but it took me an hour and a half to get the boy to nursery ... so not so much. Thanks, snow!

Do you know how hard it is to push a buggy through 4 inches of the white stuff? The wheels turn from the resistance and the spokes fill with snow and they're duo wheels so the snow plugs the inner section and they turn into small snow ploughs.

It was like, my one golden chance of doing Christmas shopping too, so I thought 'hey, it's a little snow' and went to town. Yeah,buses stopped. Still got shopping (only 4 of my family left to buy for! Before you think I've done no shopping ... I'm buying for at least 15 people) and the nursery called at 2. Shutting at 4. Brilliant. I stranded myself ... I got a disabled taxi to the nursery and shoved boy in, buggy and all. Didn't cost loads considering the weather and the fact we covered half the town. But I'm creamed now.

Oh, and we've had no internet for a while which is totally my excuse for not blogging. That and the fact I practically live at work atm (I'm not going to write about work so much, I'm having an overload).

I'll end on a happy note ... kindle for Christmas! wifi and 3G ... hello solution to my multiple-books-on-holiday dilemma!
