I have to admit as a homeschool mom I'm always hoping for a snow day so my older kids can stay home. I miss them even though I know I've done the right thing sending them to school. Tricky thing about snow days in Michigan, is living in Michigan. We see a lot of snow. It's always cold (try swimming in the lake in July). We are tough and used to this, so school never seems to close. Except for the last two days. Wow, that's weather to make Alaskans shrug their shoulders enigmatically. I don't care. It meant two more days of having my big girls home.
Unlike wimpy Indiana where driving in such weather is illegal, Kurt went to work, and it really felt like the old days. We slept in, but the big girls jumped in upping my homeschooling manpower so that we could finish the essential work in a couple hours. It was fun, and I mean that non-homeschoolers. It was really fun. No such delight expected tomorrow. We're back to the usual, well, as usual at it gets in a world where throwing boiling water out your back door is a science experiment. If I didn't have such wonderful friends I'd be moving to Florida--then again, they didn't get a single day off.
