Tonight, I went out for dinner with my awesome friend (and former roomie) H. Just so you know, I laughed so hard that I almost peed! (And let’s just say that when we lived together, there were a few times when it wasn’t an almost-she is a screech!) We ate our dinner and then decided to do a little shopping. When we got done with our shopping, we walked outside to find that it was SNOWING! BIG, HUGE snowflakes!
However, when I look out my window, it just looks like rain. Bummer. I even walked out onto the balcony of my apartment, but I still couldn’t really tell much. (It has a roof.)
We have had several snow days since I have been teaching, and I have gotten spoiled, I want another snow day.
I think I have the beginnings of a sinus infection, so I could even use this day to go to the doctor and get it checked out.
Anyway, you should all wear your pajamas inside out and do a little snow dance for me.

We woke up to a couple inches of snow with another 3-5 planned during the day and a total of 9-15 before we wake up on Wednesday. And still the kids had to go to school. They seem to be pretty harsh about shutting down school for snow around here these days.
Yikes…if we got that much snow here it would shut EVERYTHING down. We get out for the threat of snow because none of us natives know how to drive in it.
We didn’t get a snow day today, but we DID get dismissed early, at 1:00. I liked getting off early, but corralling 23 kindergartners and getting them all off to the right places isn’t on my must-do list.
We have to go to school on President’s Day so that we can “stockpile” it for a snow day. We had better use our 5 remaining days or I will be uber-peeved.
We ended up only getting about 6 inches. I think they got more towards Chicago from the lake-effect snow. A lot of the Chicago schools seemed to close.
Shutting school early just seems rude. How do you even make sure parents are going to be able to be home for all of those Kindergartners.
Only six inches…we got that much a few weeks back and we thought it was a blizzard!
And getting all those kindergartners picked up- we had to call their parents…if you can’t get in touch with the parents, you sit in the hall with them and hold their hand while they cry because no one has picked them up yet.
