...Cancelled Retreats

Day 71
Today I was supposed to go back to work . the kids don't return to school until tomorrow but we were coming back today for a "retreat". I love going to conferences where there are break-out sessions and we don't get bogged down on one topic for three hours. Today though we were having a speaker come in and speak for 3 1/2 hours! That is a long time to sit in a room and listen to one person. We probably would have gotten a break but only one.

However, our retreat was cancelled! We had a cold front move in and it was actually colder in Alabama than it was at the North Pole today and God forbid we get out in any weather below freezing. Anyway, our speaker was traveling from Nashville so there was no way with all the frozen roads that she could make it down so the retreat was cancelled and we got another day at home. I wasn't too thrilled about not going back to work but I was okay with their being no retreat.
