"Snowy Conditions Proving Hazardous for Nations Idiots"

[melilley]

All schools are closed. 2 out of 2 came today. One came so bundled up that he couldn't walk (kinda reminded me of the kid in The Christmas Story) and his mom kinda just shoved him in the door (nicely) and talked to me while she was walking out. His mom is the project manager for our township and her car wouldn't make through the streets so the Fire Chief brought dcm and dcb here.

My other dcb's parents are off today, both of them. Same dcb who comes everyday no matter what-except yesterday because they couldn't get our of their driveway.


CH-Don't ask why, but I thought it was funny that you mentioned that the hot chocolate box was unopened...

I'm in Southern California so we don't exactly have "seasons" kwim. So no snow for us here. It's 9:25 right now and 48 degrees. Our low for today is 46 degrees and our high is 71 degrees.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 71! I'm closing my eyes and imagining that!

Ok I love the special workday delivery by Fire Dept.. lovethis Top 5 funny in all my years... ::

As for the unopened package... "Nobody knows the trouble I've seen..." sing it with me now.. ::::

It has to be unopened or in individual packets. I've been bit by that dog before... It is a batch box, not packets (the kind that come in gift baskets).

I should clarify: they were delivered in a SUV, not a fire truck...
Funny thing is, well not really funny, but we had a fire 2 1/2 years ago and the fire chief was here. I wonder if he remembered?

We had 17 of 20...so pretty normal day numbers wise. My coteacher was out sick, but they gave me a decent sub, so it wasn't a disaster that we had to stay in.

I let them run coatless to the end of the playground and back (the winter equivalent of streaking ). It was 9 degrees. It hasn't been that cold here probably in their lives, so they got a little cheap thrill. I was was just waiting for some stuffy parent (or administrator) to come by and see.

I had to leave 3 of them inside due to lack of winter gear, but when it warmed up to a toasty 21*, we went outside.

Not a bad day all in all.
