Did you know icicles could type?

This weekend was nice because guess what I did....ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!! I don't think I have been that lazy in a loooong time and it felt so good! Saturday it snowed her all day so I laid in bed all day and I actually went to sleep at 7:30. That is a shocker for me because I am a total night person. Seriously on the weekends I will stay up until 4:00am just because (not because I am partying). Week days I stay up until 1:00am and I get up at 6:30-7:00am. So it felt great to sleep and not feel guilty about it. I guess that would be one advantage to not having kids...I should enjoy it.

It is so cold here and we are not even into winter yet. January and February are the worst and I am not looking forward to them. I work for an auto company and apparently to conserve some cash they have decided heat is a perk and not a necessity. I am sitting at my desk with a sweater, a coat, and a blanket on and I am still freezing. I feel like a human icicle. The building I work in is made pretty much out of glass and I sit right by the windows so it is CCCCCOLD! They already said that their will be no lighting after 7:00pm until 7:00 am so all the people who work at those times I guess have to BYOF (bring your own flashlight). Does not make for a very reassuring, job security, work environment.

Anyway, I guess I should get back to work...lunch time is over. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

I feel your pain. It's cold here too and I just can't seem to warm up.

Go get yourself a cup of hot chocolate, on me.

Cheers!

Geesh! I know it's good to conserve in the economy, but maybe they're taking it a little too far?

I hope you stay as warm as you can!

LOL @ "bring your own flashlight."

No heat and lights for employees is an interesting way to save money as the CEOs fly private jets all over the place. Hopefully those made it on the list of "TO DO" if they get the bailout money. :)

My sleep schedule has been screwed up since I got home from Thanksgiving. And I dont like it! :(

April said...

Oh goodness! Well, as an icicle you did a fine job!

Today the weather was pretty nice here with temps around 55-60. Tomorrow the high is 25 and I already can't stand it. UGH!

Do nothing weekends are my favorite things

I'm the same way about sleep. I'm always telling DH that we may as well enjoy sleeping in while we can. It's definitely a perk of the childless life.

Those are my favorite kind of weekends! That's awful on the heat at work... kinda makes me think couter-productive from the employees! My classroom is usually in the low 60's, maybe my district is trying to conserve too!

The best weekends are when we do nothing...isn't that the truth!
