I worked last night, so today was pretty much just a lazy day! I rode to work with a friend who has 4-wheel drive ...that way I didn't have to get out on the icy/slushy roads. But, when I got home and unpacked my lunch bag, I realized that I forgot to turn in the VERY IMPORTANT keys to unlock the electronics and camera cabinets! So... in spite of my great planning of riding to work with someone else, I had to get in my car ANYWAYS and drive back to work...when I should have been crawling into bed...to return the keys! Returning home was INSANE...
here's my "adventure"...
I was only 1 block from my driveway... I slowed down to turn onto the street to get home, but there was a PSO (Public Service of OK) with hazard lights stuck in the middle of the road. SO... I drove down to the next block, thinking I would turn there. Got on that street and in the middle of the road, a car was being dug out of the snow by a guy with a shovel. I sat there for what seemed like 10 minutes (was probably only 2 or 3) before they got un-stuck... I couldn't go anywhere else because making a u-turn in the slush would probably have gotten me stuck! (pardon my poor grammar...lol) Anyways, they moved on, so I could get to my street. Went to turn down my road, and there was an Asplundh truck (tree cutters) blocking the whole street cutting down a tree. I spun my tires once again trying to move on to the next road to go around the block...so I could eventually get back home. But ALAS... they city FINALLY plowed the road I was on... all the snow they plowed ended up in a pile at the end of EVERY road to get back into my neighborhood... UGH! I got to the end of that road and found an opening to one street... one VERY SLICK street. For 5 minutes, I slid and slushed along a few more roads until I finally made it home safe... THANK GOD!
Moral of this story: DON'T FORGET TO TURN IN YOUR WORK KEYS!!
Anyways, got home and went to sleep... a very restful, deep sleep for 4 hours. I only nap a few hours on Mondays because I don't work Monday night... If I were to sleep all day, I'd wouldn't be able to sleep at night... makes sense right? Okay... well, I got up and an hour later put the kids down for a nap: PEACE AND QUIET!! So quiet, I fell back to sleep for 2 hours! Darn it, the sleep was good, but I'm a little worried about tonight! Haha!
For dinner, I made a SUPER DELISH Cabbage Roll Casserole! I took a picture of it to post here, but Tim said the picture makes it look like someone dissected some part of the human anatomy and put it in my Pyrex dish... so to spare you, I am not including the picture! (sometimes, pictures just don't do a good meal any justice)
BUT... I will put the recipe, because it was yummy!!

Recipe looks good, but I don't think anyone but me would eat it.
