No School Tomorrow.

At about 8 pm, Cody, one of my homeroom kids called me and asked if school was closed for tomorrow--that Tanner had called him and said it was closed.  I said, "I haven't heard anything about it."  Then I had him hang on while I called Susan on my cell and asked her.  She said she had heard nothing.  So, I told Cody i would call him back if I heard anything.  I turned on KTTC, and surprise, surprise, school closings and late starts were scrolling across the bottom--and our school came up as one of them! 

So, I called Cody back and let him know that we were closed, then I called all the kids in my homeroom and let them know.  I don't want them walking to school in the awful frozen winter weather.

So far, 33 area schools are closed for tomorrow and 6 have late starts.

I'm glad we called tonight because now I can sleep in tomorrow.  Ahhhhh.  I really wanted to sleep in today, but I had to get up and go.

School went okay.  I made some hot chocolate when I got to school and it made me feel really sick.  My stomach rolled and ached for over an hour.  Then I went down to the teacher's bathroom and puked.  I felt much better afterwards.

We were supposed to have a board meeting at 5:30 pm, but we cancelled it because it was so freaking cold.  I was very happy to be able to come home while it was still light out. 

It is -16 right now, and tomorrow we are supposed to have -40 to -50 wind chills.  BRRRRR.

I'm glad I don't have to go out in it.  I'm going to stay snug and warm in my house.  I'll finish my laundry and maybe bake some cookies for Jim and DeAnn since Jim blew out my driveway, God bless him.

I'm really tired, so I think I am going to hit th hay for the night.

I *love* snow days. They are truly the best. It's like a little surprise. I have a teacher in the same complex as me. When we were at the same school, we carpooled. She always calls me as soon as she hears school closings. Then I roll around on the floor in my pajamas and giggle like I'm still in elementary school.
