School was cancelled at 5AM this morning, so the kids are sitting watching cartoons at the moment. On the plus side, they helped empty the dishwasher, so I guess that earns them a little down time.
The predictions are for anywhere from 5″ to 10″ for us. Tomorrow the ice and sleet and freezing rain move in so I’d say tomorrow will be the worse of the two. The kids are guaranteed not to have school tomorrow as well.
Along those lines, I’m hearing more talk about forgoing the Winter vacation so that the school year isn’t extended until the end of June. One district has already played that card here in Connecticut. I may have to conduct some lessons for the kids myself today.
I wouldn’t want them to think staying home from school is just automatically fun, now would I?

Home Schooling is on the rise in PA : TEACH them about the myth of the Pennsylvania Ground Hog … the Science of changing seasons, the importance of folk lore, and the the difference between fact and fiction …. [good luck]
