What I Did on My Extra Day of Winter Break

My kids' daycare provider had to close today because a sewer line broke at her house over the holidays. So, I took a personal day. I had originally planned to send the kidlets to school today, but after listening to their juicy (sorry!) coughs at breakfast this morning, I decided to keep them home. What's one more day, right? After dropping my laptop and plans off at school, I took the kids to Walmart (I wasn't sure what I was looking for, but it was of dire importance that I get the kids out of the house before they drove me bananas!). I ended up getting a huge drawer organizer for my desk at home. I now have a place for all the junk that I need on an almost daily basis (White Out and rubber bands being at the top of the list, followed closely by my iPhone arm band and running headphones).

All of my running stuff now has its own little space...so easy to grab on my way out the door!

I found these adorable file folders at Walmart, too...3 for $1.00!

Since I had to go back to school at the end of the day to pick my laptop back up, we decided to head here for dinner. Their fried shrimp is the best I have ever had (believe me, I've taste-tested many a fried shrimp!), and really, any place that has a daily Happy "Teacher" Hour can't be bad! KShaf and I have resolved, though, that we are going to better about eating at home in the new year. I can't wait to see how long that lasts!
