Pizza Adventure

I woke up this morning and found out Kenton County schools were closed…so another snow day for the kids and Nicole!! It was an icy commute into work, but luckily didn’t hit any ice patches. However, there were huge pot holes on the main road and I saw several cars pulled off onto the shoulder because they had hit the potholes and popped their tire. Also luckily for me I left a little later and so the police were out and blocked the worst potholes with their cruisers so that no more cars would be damaged.

It was a busy day at work with a lot of meetings. A co-worked said it just felt like a “blah” day and I agreed…I think we’re all feeling the effects of having a lot of work, plus seeing all the additional work that’s upcoming in the next couple of months. But it’s better to be busy than not needed 🙂

I was fortunate today and was able to actually get away from my desk for lunch. Andy wanted to take me to a “hidden gem” he found that serves up fresh pizza. It’s actually a grocery story, but they have fresh lunch foods and pastries every day! So he drove and we each got a large slice of pizza and an XL size drink, all for only about $3 a person…a steal of a lunch deal! They didn’t really have a place to sit and eat so we just ate it in his car. It was nice to get away from my computer and talk about something other than work for a while. I need to try to do that more often. The pizza was great! Mine was pepperoni and the one slice filled me up. I think we’re going to try to make this a weekly tradition, as long as we’re able to both have a day where we are free during lunch.

After work I came home and had a bowl of chili and worked on some schoolwork for a while. Nicole had spent most of the morning at the YMCA with Melissa and JJ and then back at their house for the afternoon…from the pictures I received it looked looked like the kids had a blast! They then all went to Nicole/Melissa’s aunt Kim’s house for dinner. When they got home I played with Parker and Zac until it was bedtime.

Now I’m doing a little more schoolwork before bed…
