snow!

Matt and I arrive home this afternoon to more snow!  More snow!  We probably have about 20-25 inches on the ground right now that has fallen over the course of the last month.  Matt wasn't pleased about the prospect of shoveling again (and keeps hinting at his desire for a snow blower), and we now have a definitely tunnel of snow for the dog to walk through between the front door and the driveway.  Omaha is also rapidly running out of places to put all of this snow.  I have to admit I have a sort of little kid affection for snow and lots of it!  While most people are hoping that the snow ends for the year, I'm hoping that it just keeps coming.  Let's see how much we can pile up before April! 

Tomorrow is a big day for me. I return to work and start my second quarter of classes.  One of the huge bonuses of working for a university is the fact that we get Christmas Eve through New Year's Day off of work.  It is also nice that Matt also gets those days off of work so we get to spend some quality time together over the holidays.  It also gives us plenty of time to travel to see friends and family without having to plan around work schedules.   January always flys by in our office because it is one of the busiest months of the recruiting year. 

I'm excited to start my second quarter of classes.  The first quarter brought about some apprehension for me because I didn't really know what to expect from my online classes. But now that I have a semester under my belt I know what to expect, how much time I will need, and how to make it work for me and my life.  One of my classes will cover law in higher education and I am really excited about that class.
