Snow Day #7

Yes, you read that correctly. The girls are home for their 7th snow day this year. At the rate we are going their summer will be spent going to school. We only received another 8 inches of snow on Sunday but with the cold and the previous 24 inches there is nowhere to put this 8 inches of snow. The good news is we are not supposed to have anymore snow until Saturday.

This is the week for the standardized test so they are waiting as late as possible before canceling. Yesterday they started with a 2 hour delay but had to close and today they just closed from the beginning. We know the bus can't make it down our gravel road so if they try and just pick up the students on clear roads they would have MANY absences meaning MANY make-up tests.

Larry is supposed to leave for Japan on Friday. With any luck he might make it out in between these two weekend storms.
