White as Snow

Well today went better than expected. Paid my cable bill and still had some money left over for once. Nice. Also, I finally found out at work today that I got the admissions position that I have been waiting so patiently for. Now, instead of just normal CNA duties, I will be doing strictly patient admissions, which includes getting all vital signs, height, weight, do their inventory sheets and put them into the computer systems. It is more work, but less back-breaking work. Also had some more people look at the kittens today. Right now I am winding down by watching American Dad. P.S. I did read more of my book, called Sinner, last night. Made me feel good..anyway I heard a good writing prompt for today and here it is.

Write about a day during your elementary school years where school was cancelled due to snow. Remember waking up to the "good" news? How you filled your newfound free time?

~ I remember one night when I was sitting at home watching the news with my Mom and hearing about all of the snow that we were supposed to get. I was so excited because we lived at the top of a big hill and I knew it was perfect for sledding. Well, I finished my hot chocolate and curled up under my teddy-bear blanket in my room wathcing the snow fall outside the window, disappointed that we only had a 2 hour delay. The next day, my Mom woke me up and told me that school was cancelled and said I could go back to sleep. I was so excited that I jumped out of bed and ran to my window to look outside. Sure enough, the whole hill was covered in snow and there were already children sledding outside. I pulled my snowsuit and jacket out of the closet, got dressed, ran down the stairs in my little snow boots, and pulled the front door open, and ran to the top of the hill without even eating breakfast! I looked down at the steep hill and saw that some kids had already built a jump at the bottom. I ran onto the front porch and grabbed my sled and jumped on in onto the icy hill. I flew down the hill and went of the jump and landed on the flat road below. I flew off the sled and got a few little cuts, but you beter believe that I get sledding that whole day! I wish I still had that much energy! Well, thats all for now Folks :) Here is my quote for today:
