The storm did come last night, but it was nothing too bad. It rained and the wind blew all night, but there were only a couple times when the wind shook the house and it only shook it a tiny bit. And then today it rained some more, but there wasn't too much wind and it didn't even rain that hard. If we had to, we could have gone out an been just fine. We didn't though because the storm is unpredictable and we didn't want to be caught outside in case it decided to pick up again. So yeah, all's well, our walk way is soaking wet and since it's wood, it'll stay wet for a while, but that's really the only thing that's affected us.
Today was noting too exciting, seeing as I really did stay inside all day, but it actually went by quicker then I thought it would. It helps that I slept until 10 am. I wasn't being lazy though, I still didn't even get a good amount of sleep in. Last night I got into bed at 9:45 pm, but I wasn't tired and therefore could not go to sleep. I went to the bathroom like 4 times and did a lot of staring into the dark and just laid still and listened to the storm. I probably didn't fall asleep until 1am or later, but even then, I woke up every 15-30 minutes. The storm would pick up in intensity and I would wake up when a louder gust of wind came. The storm didn't settle down until around 6:30- or 7:00am and that's about the time that I started to get a restful sleep. So, if you view it that way, I only slept for about 3 hours, so I definitely wasn't lazy.
I did a little workout in my room and then went and made myself lunch (it was 11:30am by time I finished working out and showering and stuff). I spent a decent portion of the afternoon on the internet talking to friends but soon got tired of starting at the computer screen. In the living room area we have a couple of books. One of the books is the last Harry Potter book. I've already read it, but I needed something to occupy my time so I decided to start rereading that. I've gotten pretty far into it and it's helped the hours fly by. I probably should be going to bed soon, but after I finish this post up, I'm going to get back to reading.
Thinking about it, I could a, would a, should a done a little bit more lesson prep then I did, and I still have time to do it, but I think I'd rather read. So, I'm off to see how much farther I can get before I force myself to get to sleep because there is class tomorrow, and seeing as I'm the teacher, it's not like I can just not go to school.
