Snow Day Fail

Yesterday, I got up early, dressed my two girls, loaded them into the car and set out for the Y so I could get my required four-mile run in before the snow started to fall. I was pretty proud of myself for finding the motivation and drive to actually get us all out of the house before 10 am. I am notoriously bad at AM activities. I have a hard time falling asleep, and an even harder time staying asleep. My girls are night owls and love to catch their Zzzz's late into the morning. I can probably attribute our unorthodox sleep schedules to my working days where I worked any & all hours of the day, and had a constantly changing schedule.

So I get to Y, hours ahead of the impending Snow Apocalypse, to find the Childwatch room dark & empty. A note on the wall explains that when the local public school is canceled due to weather, the Childwatch will also be closed.

What? Seriously? I'm there at 9:30 am, with no snow in sight and school is canceled. What happened to the days of needing at least four inches for a snow day to even become a passing thought?

In other news, I did manage to get a solid cross-training workout in on a CardioGlide. My dad bought it for me from a Consignment Store in Dristol, NH for $10. Does anyone even use these things anymore? I mean for more than an indoor clothesline?

No, didn't think so.

I have a CardioGlide for sale. I'm willing to part with it for $7.50.
