I decided to show my wife the geek side of me again by telling her about my blog and showing her the page. She was like - okay, no big deal. Typical response. Anytime I get some new tech gadget she's never as excited as I am. The new MacBook back in August with the built in iSight camera? No big deal. The cool bluetooth wireless mouse for Christmas? No big deal. Anything tech related that I think is cool and get excited about - is no big deal to her. Can anyone else relate to this??

Anyway, I was much more excited when I saw a comment from Learn Me Good. That was a nice surprise and I appreciated his comment. After reading a few other blogs I made my way over to his site and read his post where he mentions my blog along with a few others I plan on checking out soon. Needless to say, my rambling during this posting comes from a little excitement about the fact that someone other than me is actually reading this. Perhaps it will catch on and I will get more than 1 comment and be mentioned on more than one page.

Anyway, I'm looking to my left right now staring out the front window of my house to a beautiful snowfall. While the beauty of this snowfall is pretty incredible, I'm also thinking about the task I have ahead of me - shoveling and snowblowing it. However, while I'm doing that, my first grade daughter and almost 4 year old son will have a blast playing outside. That excitement for my daughter will not compare to what she will do later today - go see the High School Musical concert with her mom and some friends. If any of you have kids who love that movie, you know what I'm talking about.

I've been working on setting up my page with some of the great blogs I've been reading. However, after linking to some of the blogs, I've discovered they don't work correctly. Now, I'm not an idiot, I've done some some web work over the years and know how to do this. I guess I'll have to play around with it a little bit.

Now, the story of the day - or at least the last couple of days. After reading about the snow day situation written by Learn Me Good, I decided to write about a little weather related story at my school. We have a guy who is responsible for taking care of our building - I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. Anyway, we've had some snow over the past few days and this college graduate (know kidding - journalism major I think) decided that he was going to sprinkle salt on the trampled down snow in front of our school instead of using a shovel. Now, even the kindergarten students knew this probably wouldn't be the best idea. He figured it would melt the snow. The result?? Lots of slush and still no clean sidewalk. One of our second grade teachers was sick of it and went out and shoveled some of the walk herself! I thought it was pretty hilarious!

Any funny "man who takes care of the school" stories are welcome.

Now, back to trying to fix the links.
