Hoooo boy.
I knew today would be hard after that beautifully long weekend of family and holiday fabulousness...but I never could've anticipated how hard.
In short, I'm tired.
And sometimes, when I'm tired, I'm short...
...tempered that is.
Oh, and that to do list of stuff I had for this weekend?
Not done.
Heh heh.
It snowed quite a bit this week, which phenomenon I love. I have never lived in a warm tropical climate before (Northern Utah's about as far from palm trees as I've ever seen), but I imagine that I'd cry when December 25th rolled around without a healthy heap of Mother Nature's Christmas confetti. Sad day indeed.
This morning however, I was not feeling so lovey dovey toward the wet cold stuff.
In fact, my Facebook status right now reads:
"Snow is like School: It's great in theory, but you still have to drive through it ;)"
But you know what? I think I'll be ok.
Happiness is a choice made significantly easier by counting ones blessings.
Here's the biggest "for instance" I can think of:
I'm going HERE on Friday!
Ah. Yep, that makes everything better.
I might just need to carry this picture with me everywhere I go this week to instantly transform my gloominess into ecstaticness. Yes, I think I shall!

Snow and all.

Driving through the snow (and school, frankly) really does stink. I left uber early, however, and made it here before my 9th graders started popping in for their usual first period shenanigans.
And the temple on Friday--totally perfect anecdote for the dismal end of a stressful semester! I wish I'd had it while in college.
oh yes today is hard. i think i enjoyed my 5 day weekend too much. and don't worry, i didn't get anything done either. hehehe.
