More snow in our part of the world. It's actually getting kind of old. We're missing so much school that all of the built-in breaks in the schedule (teacher work days and such) are being cut out and days are still be adding on at the end of the school year.
Another winter storm moving in today cancelled the twins' "afternoon" Early Start session (it starts at 10:35 in the morning, instead of 7 o'clock). Connor went to school, but early dismissal was called. That meant we got a phone call at 11:50 this morning telling us school would be dismissed at 12:35 - just 45 minutes later. Nice, since school is about 15 minutes away in good weather and car line starts backing up about 35 minutes before dismissal. We were later getting into car line, so we were further back than normal. And it didnt' start moving until 12:50 anyway. Hurry up and wait, apparently.
Poor Daddy has the worst of it. Tonight was his scheduled night training at the fire academy, so they're going to be out in this mess all night long. On the plus side, they'll be burning stuff - so hopefully that will keep them warm. But I doubt it. It will probably just make the water from the hoses and overspray that much colder.
But the boys and I are home, sitting in our PJs and curling up on the couch with our blankets and a good movie or two. There will probably be popcorn, and leftover milkshakes, too. We were even so ambitious we rotated the toys - switching the ones in the play room for some different ones in the toy closet. Hopefully that will keep the boys entertained for a while.
Our chances for school tomorrow look slim, so we'll probably be doing more of the same. Connor's already asked to go outside and play (he wanted to go out tonight - practically in the dark). We'll see what tomorrow brings.
Depending on how it goes, I may be a little too happy to go to work tomorrow night ...
