Snow day #6

That's right... another snow day. I woke up this morning, turned on the news and there at the bottom of the screen was my school closed again. (Nate had to go in. I think he was jealous of me!) This is our sixth snow day of the the year! I just can't believe it, although part of me can since the weather was so awful yesterday, blowing snow and very slippery roads. Oh well. I had another day to get caught up on house work, laundry, grocery shopping, and more school work. It always feels good to get caught up!

Well I really hope this is my last entry titled, "Snow Day #_ " until next year of course! Like I said before, snow days are great because you get to get caught up on things that you're to tired to do after a long day at school. I am ready to get back into a normal schedule and try to get my students focused again. Wish me luck! It will be very hard considering we have conferences next week and the students only report on Monday and Tuesday.

I hope that this is the last of the winter blast. I was on my way home from grocery shopping and looking at the snow covered bike path just thinking how much I miss seeing bikers, runners, and walkers out there. I can't wait until Nate and I can get back out there and walk, especially down on the board walk! Oh spring...where are you? Please hurry up and come our way!

I hope it is the end of the winter blasts as well - although I doubt it, it is Michigan after all.

I know you're sick of the snow days, but I personally love it when you're off because then I can talk to you whenever I want. :) Can't wait for summer break!

See you tonight!

Nope, another one today,Feb.19th. This has to be one of the snowiest winters in a long while. Sure does make it hard on the teachers and the parents, but the kids don't seem to mind. They will though when they school don't have a mid-winter break or are still in school in the middle of June. Bummer all the way around
