7th Snow Day and Day 27 Blues

I'm singing the blues today.  If I were more clever, like my bestest college buddy Sandita, I would compose a song.

But I'm not that clever.  All I can do is bitch in prose. 

Today is our 7th snow day of the school year.  It is actually the second ice day; today we are closed because of power outages due to the recent ice storm.  This means we have to make up school well into June;  looks like around the 10th for kids by now and 11th for teachers.  I don't really care, as we will still be working on the yearbook into July most likely.  The attached photo is one I took yesterday of our evergreen tree, in case a picture IS worth a thousand words.

More importantly, I'm singing the Day 27 blues due to an erratic menstrual cycle.  I used to be regular as hell; but now, i'm all over the place as I enter peri-menopause.  I have night sweats now and surprise periods -- how's that for living life on the edge?

So, back to the old grindstone:  gmail, facebook x 3 accounts, plurk, twitter, youtube, flickr, skype and irc chat.  Somebody's gotta be a lush.
