Wowie wow wow! (A familiar phrase for those of you that are Junie B. Jones readers) More snow days? Nate and I were so excited for our snow day on Wednesday. He was able to do our taxes and I was able to do some never ending things for school. That was our third snow day of the 2007-2008 school year that we had together.
Friday morning..."Staci, you don't have school!" Nate said.
"Shut up!" I said.
"No really. Your school just came up on the TV," said Nate. The phone rings. "And there is your phone call."
"Are you kidding me? Another snow day this week?" I said to Jessica (the wonderful teacher that informs me when there is no school).
"Yes. Can you believe it?" said Jessica in a somewhat tired, but excited voice.
"I really wanted to go to school today, but I guess I'll take it!" I said.
I did really want to go to school today. I had a fun day planned for the kids. We just finished reading my all time favorite children's book Charlotte's Web and were planning on watching the movie today and doing some other fun educational activities. Oh well. I'll just do it some day next week. Being flexible is my job!
So what should I do today? Well, I still got ready. I felt guilty because Nate had to go to school. I started my weekly cleaning (less I have to do on Sunday before the Super Bowl Party). I have a ton of work that I can do for school today. Never a dull moment around the Mihalek house, especially on a snow day!
Oh the joys of teaching...snow days. They are great to have, but in the long run...it puts you more behind than you already are!

Hey,
Im so excited for tonight. We are going to have so much fun on our girl's night. See you soon when you pick me up from school. Got to go to class.
Love you,
Jaime
Why do we pay teachers so much??? They never work... summers and winters off... what's the deal???
Just kidding of course. Mom had a snow day today, thanks to the weather forecasters. The foot of snow we were supposed to get arrived in the form of about four inches (if we measure in a drift.) Doesn't matter where we measure or how deep it is,it remains a snow day!!! Mom's happy. She, unlike you, is very happy with the day off. Want to go shopping??? How many people are coming to your party??
p.s. Where did the trees come from?
Every day's a snow day for Mommy and me :). I got a cool sled for Christmas that I've been waiting to try out, but Mommy says it's been too cold and windy... maybe next week. Mommy says she heard it's supposed to get a little warmer.
Love You & Miss You!
Graham (and Mommy)
Send some of that snow to Tennessee!
