Snow day number 2 for the kid - last week there was a 2 hour delay.  We didn't get as much snow as I was expecting, but the pressure change is ensuring I am miserable w/ the weather.

We did a bit of running around yesterday, so I didn't get all of the Christmas down and away but I did go back out last night before the snow started to pull down as much as I could outside.  The wreaths also came off of the windows and were stored, so that's something.  I enjoy having the lights from the tree, so I don't mind it being up for a few more days.

One of the stops we made yesterday was for me to cash in on winnings from the local fire company's 2024 calendar.  Nov 17 I won where I scored $250.  On Dec 30 I won a prize from Sportsman's Warehouse.  I had a pack of 10 calendars that I won when they were doing tip boards to get them gone late last year in addition to an individually purchased one - but go figure both winnings were from the same calendar/number.  I'm not exactly the muzzle loader type of gal, so I took the gift card.  Needless to say, Sportsman's Warehouse isn't exactly the easiest place for me to spend $400 - but it was still fun to walk around on a buying binge even if I left w/ half of it still on a gift card.
