What's everyone doing today during the storm?

I'm home with the kids like I'd normally be on a Thursday. DH is home working downstairs in the basement.

I'm home and I have to use a day's vacation so I'm pissed. DH is working from home and daycare is closed. DH is on a call right now and DD put all her shoes in a pile and is throwing them at me one by one.

This is the first day in my working life that I've taken a snow day- I always worked in the city, I've only been working on LI for a few months and I learned yesterday that nothing scares LIers more than snow because you would think the apocalypse was coming by the way my coworkers were talking.

These roads better get cleared because so help me I cannot stay home with these 2 again tomorrow.



Ugh I am with you. My DD HATES being home. HATES it. She is the only child on the planet who loves going to school and gets upset when school is closed.
She hates snow too- refuses to play outside in it- and I can't say I blame her. It's cold and wet- yay what fun!

When we are cooped up in this house things get bad fast- I get depressed- I don't shower or get dressed, why bother? Then I just get more depressed from that and it's a vicious cycle.
I work from home on days like this and have to hide from the noise to take calls.
By noon she is bored and bitchhing and moaning.
We are not cut out to be stuck in this house.
God help us.
There better be school tomorrow

Other: Took LIRR into work. Had no issues, just worried about getting home later.



Keep an eye on the LIRR. They shut down at 10 inches because of the 3rd rail.

Dh is at work and took the lirr. He said he's leaving soon and I'm praying he gets home before they shut down-I have a snow day and am home with our 3 month old and 2.5 year old. I think this is the first day I haven't left my house in like 2 years

That was my boss yesterday...her exact words were I don't think 10 inches of snow is a lot at all!!! Funny coming from the person who doesn't come in if there are one too many clouds in the sky!!! If we have a flurry she stays home because of the kids Chat Icon
Thank goodness it's not her decision if we close or not!!
