So Unfair!


Today there is a Winter Storm Warning (this is how they say it on the news, capitalized and boldface) that stretches from the tip of Maine to the Ohio River Valley. Ice storms and feet of snow await. Over 500 schools in the Boston area are closed today. Every school in Windsor County is closed today except...ours! W was fit to be tied as I bundled him out the door for the bus. In fact, as we were waiting at the bus stop, a nice lady even stopped her car to inform me that "school is closed." "Yes," I replied, "only, not ours." This made W even madder. Waving at his sad/mad little face in the window I did kind of feel bad for him. But when I walked in the house I did a little dance of joy because I don't have to go anywhere today. So you know what that means: Snow Day! We'll have some fun at home and let the bus do the driving. And all this snow means great snowmobiling on Saturday. So bring on the Winter Storm, we'll do our best to enjoy it!

I can picture your little dance of joy! Snow days are about the only thing I miss about New England winters. Have fun and stay warm!
