SNOW SNOW SNOW

Its day 2 and we are cold and my poor husband is soar from all the snow sholving yesterday. Schools are closed and well, I have been catching up with my kids, watching movies, reading books and scrapbooking to my heart's content. I finished up a set of cards and now only have one set left to complete. I hope to also get some gifts completed for upcoming birthdays and teacher gifts. I know kind of early but better prepared than not, I say.

Movies...I watched The Day After Tomorrow. It was fitting since we have been home do to the snow. My son watched it with me and it awakened his thoughts about what could happen to Earth if we do not take better care of it.

Ofcourse we watched our share of Scooby Doo and Elmo to satisfy the masses. Scooby Doo is a riot, I love the episodes with the Harlem Globtrotters or Batman in them. I watched those when I was his age. I think I will be puting on GI Joe and the Justice League cartoons for him today. Talk about throw back to our younger years but they do not make cartoons like they use to.

I degress, I have to get breakfast going and then we can have cartoons all morning. Yes, another snow day and hopefully it will be one where we can enjoy the cartoons, hot chocolate and maybe some rest time. Keep Warm!

Dear John and Weekend Plans

I just finished reading the Nicholas Sparks book Dear John. It made me laugh, cry and really dislike Nicholas Sparks. I forgot his books never truly end with a happy ending. Over all, it was enjoyable but if you have read any of his books you know what I mean when a happy ending was needed for this book. I guess my version of the ending was not his intended ending for Dear John. Poor John is all I will say for now.

So, there is a dreaded snow storm coming our way and everyone is in a panic. Stocking up on food and salt for their homes. I am bummed about this possible snow storm, I usually look forward to them but this one is impacting my weekend plans. We shall see if the Book Club Ladies will make it to our adventure down south.

If things do go sour for my plans I will have to see what movies we have to watch for the long weekend. Hmm...I may have to get out some of the old faithful ones to keep us laughing all weekend long. For example and not in any particular order...

1. The Replacements
2. Old School
3. Dodgeball
4. Grandma's Boy
5. Alien's in The Attic
6. The Rundown
7. The Last Dragon
8. Zoolander
9. Days and Confused
10. Breakfast Club
11. The Waterboy
12. Van Wilder
13. Half Baked
14. Big Daddy
15. Rat Race
16. 50 First Dates
17. Wedding Crashers
18. Shaun of the Dead
19. The Pacifier
20. Beverly Hills Cop

I doubt we will get through all of these but its a start so we can plan around naps since only maybe 2 are okay for the entire family to watch together. So I want the snow to head away from us but if it does hit us, I say "Bring It On!" ...Also another rather funny movie.
