I loved Snow days...didn’t you?

I am sure.... that many of us would attest to the fact, if you grew up in a northern winter Snow State...that one of your most ecstatic memories....was when you heard on your Radio... that your School District was Closed..... Due to a winter snow storm...You had a SNOW DAY.....!!!

Man...That was like music to your ears...we could get to do all the things you wanted to do... in the snow....without going to school!!!...that meant sledding, skating...skiing maybe...not me... but also...snowball fights...making money by digging people out of snow drifts...etc..
It was a day to PLAY....no responsibilities, no one could drive.....as long as there was heat and hot chocolate...life was good!!

What occurred to me...now that I live in Florida...is that I miss that...!! I miss those, gifts of nature.....spontaneous day off.

However, I have gotten a reprieve.....as I sat here about an hour or so ago...and I felt a little brownout...and heard a pop in the neighborhood.
It was a Comcast Transformer that had blown...and everything in our Entire Zip code was offline..,...no internet , no cable , no digital phone....guess what...I HAD AN INTERNET DAY OFF!!!... and...it felt as good as a SNOW DAY....

Of course.....once I got over the shock that I would have no email, no Facebook....no communication over the internet...everything had come to a halt... technologically speaking....
.
NOW what do you do when you have an INTERNET DAY OFF?..
Well...we should play just like we did when we were kids......go shopping, do the things we would ordinarily not be able to do because the internet is down.....visit friends.. go walking. .swim...drive around town... just like the weekend...this is awesome...!!!

Imagine... if Business did the same?.... if you are employed....you should get a message to your cell phone that the Internet is down... and you don’t have to report to work!!!..... It will become a new item in your benefit package....that you are entitled to several paid “Internet is down” days off...

So...go make the most of it...while the internet is down and enjoy it....it will be coming back online soon....too soon.

Oh btw... I could equally enjoy a CELL PHONE day off....but no way....could I handle a TEXTING DAY OFF....that would just cripple me......

If that happens....I’ll need a real vacation......rayray
