School Snow Delay

Posted by Scott at 09:03 PM

Good morning! I wasn't expecting this, but the kids have a 2 hour school delay. ☃ This also means that Michelle doesn't teach her Cardio Blast class today. Hopefully the kids use the time to clear off the bit of snow we may have gotten, but I doubt it. 6:24am

My wife always says that when the school drop-off doesn't force me out the door, I tend to dawdle heading for work. Today was no exception. I was about ~25-30 minutes late, but I enjoyed some breakfast at home. I consider it a win. I listened to more of "Reamde" the first half of the commute and caught up with my dad for the second half. 9:31am

Met with my spiritual director over lunch. Among many things we discussed an upcoming retreat in late April and a course in late February. Time permitting I'd love to attend both. 12:57am

Pope Paul VI: Only so many tomorrows -- “Somebody should tell us, right at the start of our lives, that we are dying. Then we might live life to the limit, every minute of every day. Do it! I say. Whatever you want to do, do it now! There are only so many tomorrows.” 1:20pm

Sure, other Linux distros are mockingly saying "welcome to 2003" but finally ArchLinux, my favorite Linux variant, gets package signing. 1:27pm

On Wednesday Wikipedia goes offline to protest SOPA/PIPA. Now if Wikipedia went down to for a WEEK, you could almost hear the roar of a billion college students having their term papers failed! ;-P 1:34pm

Happy I finally got my license for BeyondCompare at work. 5:41pm

Left work on the late side, listening to more of "Reamde" along the commute. Got home a little after 7:30 and had some leftovers. Watched a couple of Disney sitcoms with the kids. Now to get the boys tucked in bed with their prayers and read some more of Bishop Sheen's "Life of Christ". Good night all! 9:02pm

“Then He said to them,
‘The sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath.
That is why the Son of Man is lord even of the sabbath.’ ”
