Snow day

My northern friends will laugh at this little dusting of snow (our first of the winter), but all the kids in the county enjoyed a snow day today. I was glad not to have to go anywhere, but I took the girls outside for a few minutes for a little walk just to keep them from going stir-crazy!


Thanks for your kind comments about my back, everyone! It still is uncomfortable, but I don't think it is injured as badly as I had feared when I first felt it go *rip*. Icing and tons of ibuprofen for the first day helped and today I'm just taking it easy and not exercising. I may try to run slowly tomorrow afternoon, though. We'll see. Cycling or the bike trainer is still out of the question for a while - that can hurt my back even on a good day!

We had more snow than you guys...wierd hmm? Must have to do with the global WARMING? At least that's what my daughter tells me!
Hope your back is doing better.
I slipped and fell on black ice this a.m. on a walk my husband and I decided to take as schools were closed until noon here (icy roads).
Luckily I bounced up and am just a little bruised...ouch!

Cute pics. But that's certainly a LOT more more snow than I have in FL or HI :-)

Hope the back gets better soon!
