When Is Our 2 Hour Delay?!?!?!?

On days like today, when the snow falls during rush hour, wouldn't you love to have a two hour delay? Hey, this is my fantasy...just come along for the ride. Why couldn't all businesses mimick the school districts and delay the open of business a couple of hours. You don't have to worry about the kids getting off to school (who ARE on delay), the roads could be cleaned, AND all of us would lounge in our p.j.'s and have actually drink a cup of coffee in a coffee cup (as opposed to a travel mug or paper cup). See, aren't you happy you took that little ride into make-believe with me?

While you struggled to get through traffic today, fighting against all stupid drivers (you being the exception, of course), here are some things that passed through my brain.

The Wii --- Seriously, when was the last time you were so tempted by a video game system. My husband and I were not moved by XBox or Playstation, but 'Wii' are currently struggling with the decision to get a Wii. 'Wii' agree that should a Wii enter are home, there will have to be ground rules:

1) 'Wii' cannot play unless two or more grown ups are in the house, that way our son is not left to fend for himself during a guitar hero marathon, and consequently rescued from our home by Children & Youth Services. An unsupervised adult left with a 'Wii' and a small child is practically begging Channel 4's Sheldon Ingram to stand outside your home and taunt you about being a "good" parent.
2) 'Wii' will not slough off laundry, dishes, exercise & nutritious meals in order to spend more time with 'Wii'. Sheldon is waiting...
3) 'Wii' cannot spend more than two...three....four...but no more than five hours with Wii. I really mean that....for the most part.

SantaFish
Santa is bringing a fish to our 16 month old. Mr. Claus went into heavy negotiations with Mrs. Claus regarding the type of SantaFish, whether toddlers need a Santafish, bowl vs. aquarium for SantaFish, care and feeding of SantaFish. Santa would bring our son The Fish That Ate Beaver County, without any regard for, well, Mrs. Claus. Mrs. Claus loves our son just as much as Mr. Claus, but realizes that with the joy of Santafish comes great responsibility (shouldered mainly by Mrs. Claus). Have Mr. and Mrs. Claus ever argued at your house? Do you know who won?



Lookin for light displays...
Tell me which one YOU think is the best. We are going to try the one in Clinton, Pa. It's closest to our house. Any reviews on it? Recommendations?
