From The Past: December 18, 2003

We had our first snow day today which means kids didn’t have to go to school because of the snowy roads. While Andrew went to see The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King at the theatre; Kevin, Ashley, and I watched Ocean’s Eleven here at home. I thought this movie was awesome! If you liked the movie Entrapment then you would love this!

I also took the time today to clean out my file folders. I keep all of our bills in a filing cabinet in individual folders and I try to clean them out once a year. We have a great paper shredder that we use so that no one else knows the amounts of anything. Of course, I just saw on an episode of CSI where they put papers back together that had been shredded, but I really doubt that anyone wants to know that much about us anyway. We filled two garbage bags!

Currently (2019): Schools were closed a few days ago, not because of snow, but because of flooding. It rained so much that several primary roads were too flooded for use.

After I cleaned today, I filmed the Christmas House Tour video. It will be posted on YouTube on Christmas Eve. It was funny because our cat, Chapel followed me around the entire time I filmed. He’s such a good boy.
