And not the good, Dairy Queen kind. The snow kind.
Started last Friday around 1 p.m. and didn't stop until Saturday night. I'd say we probably got 30 inches of snow at our house, and with the blizzard conditions it was blowing and swirling all over.
Schools were closed on Friday in anticipation of the weather. This was such a big storm that this area is not at all equipped to handle it.
The kids still aren't back in school.
They've had 6 days off.
Tell me they'll really go back on Monday?!?
They've pretty much totally zoned out this entire time. Video games all morning, podcasts all afternoon, spending an hour of outside time and that's it, then back inside for more down time, dinner, then more screen time. I had 2.5 days off work, but Tod didn't miss any time. I loved every second of the down time, I'll tell you that – I could get used to a life of leisure (though I'd prefer if I could actually leave the house).
The kids' brains might be mush by now.
Reed hung out with friends a bit, but mostly he'd rather be home. Amy too, I guess.
It's supposed to warm up in the next few days so hopefully a lot of this snow will melt (it's still pretty much one lane on all the neighborhood roads) and things can get back to normal.
I vote for no more snow!
