Case of the Snow days

I live in Michigan. I've lived here pretty much all my life. I have a house. Snow days used to be of such great joy as a child. No school. Playing in snow all day. Going inside and getting hot cocoa. Ah, that was the dream. As an adult....I dislike snow days. I'm fliping 28 and my body aches for days after shoveling 8+ inches of snow. I officially hate snow. Neighbors have snow blowers (all strapping young men) and rarely do I get the offer for help. I was glad the plow came down my street. Then I noticed that I was plowed in. 2 feet high. Shoveling that was harder than shoveling the entire driveway. Ugh, I complain a lot. Just note. I have a case of the snow days. And there's more snow to come. *sigh*

Good stuff. I was chosen to play the lead role in a short film. It's all local and no budget. It's legit. No porn or anything, lol! My ex-husband will have our son so it doesn't get in the way of Mommy and son time. I'm looking forward to it. But it takes me into a darker place than I want to be. I play a 30 yr old woman that is trying to get her ex-boyfriend back. He dumped her for another woman. Last scene is her knowing that he's still involved with the other woman and she lets him sleep in her bed. She's a mess. Addicted to sleeping pills. I've been in a dark place myself and I need to pick myself back up. But for the sake of becoming the character I am trying to maintain the darkness. It is wearing on me. I will hold on to the feeling until Sunday then I'm over it. Filming begins Saturday night.

My son is doing well. He's been great about using the potty. But also recently just stopped using it. *sigh* It was a nice run. He'll get back on the potty soon enough. Holy underwear. His boxer briefs are 2 for $15. I don't spend that much on my own underwear. We bought him a snow shovel and he "helped" me shovel snow. Important part is that he had fun. Then we played in the back yard with the sled and in his plastic play house and slide. I posted the video on youtube! Financially we are strapped for a while but I am hopeful that we will get our barrings back by summer.
