Thawing

This time last week we woke to a winter wonderland! At first the weather said we would get about 1/4 of an inch... However we ended up with about 2 to 2.5 inches of sleet. School was canceled on Friday and as well as work for me. I was already scheduled off for the weekend so it was nice being home but cabin fever sure did set in fast for me.
Friday Michael did go into work but came home early as most people didn't show up. He made a stop by the store to get a few things we needed.
Saturday I needed to go to target, I had a bunch of coupons set to expire that day and I didn't want to miss out on my savings plus we needed out of the house. We made our way slowly to the store and got what I was after.  We came back home and relaxed for the day.
Sunday the ice began melting a little bit. We made a trip to walmart to pick up something I had ordered and for a few needed items. Afterwards we decided to go over to babies r us for some long sleeve onesies for the twins that they really needed and were on sale. We got everything home and put away and went to lunch that we had planned on earlier in the week. The roads weren't really all that bad, we just really had to watch for the bridges and over passes. After lunch I took everyone home and lexi and I went to big lots to do some Christmas shopping. It is nice to get out with just one kid. We finished up and headed home for the evening.
Monday the kids didn't have school again. I was kind of glad, one I got to sleep in and secondly I had a nice set of helpers for the day. Although I did have to work that evening. Monday we still had areas with ice but thankfully our area was getting better.
Tuesday was back to school for the kids, I think they were happy to go back. That evening some more of my online orders were ready to be picked up so I took along Lexi and first we went to target to get stocking stuffers and gifts. Then to walmart to pick up my orders and get a few things. It was a busy couple of day but I am so glad we are thawing out even if we still have ice here and there on houses and on the ground in shaded spots.
I saw online it's possible for us to have another winter storm just a few days before christmas and one part of me says ok but the other is screaming no!
