Snow Day!

Hooray!!!  School was closed due to a fast and furious snowfall this morning.  It was glorious to receive the email from our course leader explaining that even though the school wasn't closed (yet), she was postponing our med surge exam until Thursday.  About a half hour later, school was closed.  I immediately put down my computer and gave up reading power point slides for awhile.  I will resume studying after dinner this evening, until I go to bed...blah.

I woke up to Erin's phone ringing at 5:30am letting her know she too had a snow day.  For the next two hours I was calling the hotline to my school, checking for emails and the constantly logging on to the website to see if I would also be cancelled.  I knew it had to be coming, every school around us was closed and the roads were covered. 

Once I knew school was closed for the day, I went out to shovel, which was useless as what I shoveled was quickly covered back up.  Erin and I went out again later on to clean our cars and shovel more.  It looks like we have have gotten about 4-5".  We spent the day watching some Dexter, listening to Christmas music, baking bread and knitting.  Erin got a nice long nap in and I snoozed, with my computer on my lap, for about 10 minutes.  I hope I am nice and tired later to go to bed early as I know I will have clinical bright and early tomorrow!

Tomorrow is my last advanced med surge clinical day!  I believe my car pool buddy and I may drive in and stop to get donuts for the staff.  I am glad to be ending this rotation and can't believe it's my third one!  I am just so excited to start peds and then OB!! 

I am off to enjoy this last extra bit of my free day off :) Here are a few shots from the snow day!
