It was a snow day for the kids and me. They actually called off school last night. We didn't do much this morning. Just kind of lazed around and played video and computer games and such. I also watched some episodes of "The Big Bang Theory." I love that show, it's hilarious.

I took the kids to McDonald's for lunch and then we went to Stacey's. They stayed there for a little while so I could go to my doctor's appointment. I called to get an appointment because I was concerned that I might have a kidney infection.

My doctor seems to think that I have just been dehydrated from being sick with stomach flu and the fact that my intake of fluids has still not gotten back to where it was. I don't have much of an appetite yet, either. But, from what I understand that could still take a few more days. I did have to leave a sample with them so they could check and make sure nothing was going on, but since I don't have a fever and it didn't hurt when he pushed around on my kidneys he doesn't really thing anything is wrong.

I stopped at the grocery store after that and then went back to Stacey's. The roads out in St. Peters were horrible, but in St. Charles, they weren't as bad. The snow/ice had started coming down again so we didn't stick around Stacey's very long. Plus, the kids were ready to leave for some reason.

This evening the kids went out to shovel driveways with Michael. They did ours and two of our neighbors' driveways. By the time they'd finished the neighbors', ours needed it again. The kids had fun being out there with Daddy.

I made them cocoa when they came in and then it was time for them to get ready for bed. Both our school districts have already called off school for tomorrow so we'll be home again.
