Well, all the schools in my county are officially on a two-hour delay. For those of you who never get these (or who are out of the education loop, or out of this country!) that means we'll start school 2 hours later than usual.
But a 2 hour delay means a REALLY good chance of just canceling school altogether!
I know I'm simply terrible since I only worked all day Tuesday (no school on Monday because it was the last day of Christmas vacation), I worked a half day Wednesday since I went home to take care of a sick Mac (who is MUCH better now!), and a half day today since we received an early dismissal due to the snowy weather. And I was just off for 2 weeks for Christmas. And I haven't had a real job in over a year--- so why the hell would I, of all people, want a snow day?
It's a teacher thing. I gotta tell ya, it's a teacher thing! We hear the words "lots of snow" and we all start salivating at the mere thought of a snow day! I think the teachers were worse than the kids today, with the building anticipation of a "snow day!"
It would totally be awesome to get a snow day on a FRIDAY! Can we say "three day weekend?!?" Yeah, I know, teachers always have it easy! (I could barely type that from my body convulsing laughter!)
When I left the insurance office tonight at 7:30 p.m. it was still snowing, the city roads were terrible- the plows just can't seem to keep up- and the wind in town was starting to blow. It was blowing so hard, as a matter of fact, that there was a drift up against Daddy-O's garage when I got home. And we had just been plowed out 3 hours prior!
Jack Frost and Mother Nature are waging war!
Guess I'll find out tomorrow if we're off, or just running 'delayed'.
Maybe baby,
Maggie
Snow day! Snow day!!!! Crossing my fingers for you :)
