Wow sw and 3s!! You're kids have got to have a major case of cabin fever!! Reminds me of the winter of ........oh heck I dunno, I was in the 4th grade. lol We were out of school for 3 weeks straight. Storm after storm after storm........then as I recall we got to go back for a few days and wham we started to get hit with them again. That was one spring everyone was thrilled to see!
I'm so glad you got your snow Star and got to have fun in it.
sister in law said the roads are treacherous at best, downright deadly in spots. But he had no choice but to go to work since he works for the airline and they'll need him tonight. And for sister in law to say that.........a normal person most likely wouldn't be able to drive on them.
I'm POed. Nichole was called from work and told if she calls off due to weather she risks getting fired. So now she has to risk attempting driving to work in all this snow with the blowing and drifting in the dark at 6am on the highway!! grrr Idiots. They make candles for pete's sake!!
easy child has no choice but to go to work. She is expected to show up regardless of weather conditions. She was so afraid of getting stuck taking the kids to the sitters at 5am (sitter lives waaaay out in the middle of no man's land - I imagine her country roads are completely impassible) she asked me to watch the boys tomorrow. This of course is going to depend on if she can make it out of her driveway in the morning. lol Her street does NOT get plowed as it's a private lane. ugh! And then she's got to drive 20 miles on a highway that is known for how bad snow drifts on it even in gentle wind.
So I have 2 kids to worry about tomorrow.
As far as I know it's still snowing. My car tires are buried. Minnie and Underfoot are hunkered down in the dog house on the porch. husband gave them extra food rations tonight. Rowdy won't even stick his nose out of the dog house, so husband placed his food dish inside it.
And Betsy! OMG could've killed her right at sunset. She'd been out to potty. husband lost his grip on her collar bringing her inside and off she ran! Her legs are like 4-6 inches long folks.......she looked like a seal going thru the snow. But I was so mad at her. I refuse to chase a dog that runs off......and this was the worst weather for her to chose to do it in.
Stupid silly dog. Bounded (literally) into the front yard, tail a wagging. She had to romp all over the yard before she'd come to me who was calling her from the front door. By the time she came in she was white instead of black. Worse than a kid!!!
As for me.....of course there is no school tomorrow. I'm making a big batch of beef stew in the crock pot and playing with Darrin and Brandon. I'll study when Brandon takes his naps.
Stay safe everyone!!
