Apparently a snowstorm is moving in.
Feb. 9th, 2010 09:15 pmLast time they said that (last week) we got, like, three inches of snow. If that. And it melted within the day. I didn't even shovel the front.
This time, they pre-emptively canceled school tomorrow. This solved the problem of "who's gonna pick up the nieces when I take my grandmother to her doctor's appointment", but that got canceled too.
No school. No doctor's appointment. Two kids and a Bonne-maman home all day. All I can say at this point is it had better snow. If I don't see snow up to my thighs, heads are gonna roll, I can promise you that.
Gotta give the school credit, though. They printed their "school canceled because of snow!!!!!" notices on the backs of their "Friday, V-Day party" notices so they only had to send home one flier. (Meanwhile, when I was a kid, they never closed the schools. Not ever. The snow could be shoveled up into piles higher than our heads like tunnels and we'd *still* have to go. Or stay home, but not, you know, legitimately.)
