The Dore's Dwelling: So, the snow is still here.

So, the snow is still here.

We are on snow day number 3 for this week. That means that if it snows anymore, we will be in school more days in May. I can't really say that I haven't enjoyed doing what I want and sleeping in this week. I have been to Target twice this week and went to TJ Maxx today. I really couldn't bear the thought of having to be stuck inside all day. Much to my excitement, I actually found some things that I like at TJ Maxx. Usually I go there and can't find anything that I really need. I taught my students about "wants and needs." I would say that TJ Maxx consists of "wants." Last night, I was watching What Not to Wear and it really hit me that I need to step it up in the clothing department. I shop, shop and shop some more and come home with nothing every time. Craig will tell you that I only come home with tank tops and hoodies. I can't really say he is wrong, but I always tell him that that he is. Today I really kept my mind open and found some things I really like. One of which is a hoodie, but it ties around the waist and is super cute. I can even wear it to work. I also found a cute cardigan sweater and a pair of stretchy, skinny jeans. I really never thought I'd be buying skinny jeans, but today my friends, I did. I couldn't resist. They are comfy and cute. My boots even fit over them.

I will have to say that this nonstop snow has been weird. Even as I got out of my car in the parking lots of TJ Maxx and Target, there was snow piled up everywhere. It has been a strange winter so far. I am really ready for warmer weather. It is supposed to be in the 40's this weekend. That seems like a heat wave!
