Only really severely cold days seems to bother the kids --- like today was minus 27 Celsius BEFORE any windchill is factored in, which then drops it to minus 40. they only lasted 15 minutes today. <br />Normally they will stay out until their faces are red, fingers are numb and snot is frozen to their face.

We made plans to go to Breckenridge for Spring Break. For what else - to play in the snow. Because we NEVER get much snow in KC and didn't have any last Winter. Well, the last time we decided to do the same was about 3-4 years ago when we had 2 feet of snow over the holidays and it stayed until March. Just think, in a few months you will be complaining about how f**in' hot it is around here...Kelly and Snehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12694012810022647105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984487997306130330.post-60848305915614658662013-02-27T18:24:39.102-06:002013-02-27T18:24:39.102-06:00Send the snow our way...better than this rain!Send the snow our way...better than this rain!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984487997306130330.post-75245409361840934192013-02-27T17:40:35.805-06:002013-02-27T17:40:35.805-06:00I can sympathize, but I also live in California......I can sympathize, but I also live in California....I'm not sure if you wanted to know that or not! :PAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14718975387489795957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984487997306130330.post-41687586499088867832013-02-27T14:07:56.401-06:002013-02-27T14:07:56.401-06:00I also want to know where all the mittens disappea...I also want to know where all the mittens disappear to?

Schools were cancelled Monday and Tuesday and I was cooped up in a 900 sq ft house with two boys...... Stay at home mom is NOT one of my desirable future careers. Anyhow, I sent my children outside (envision Randy from The Christmas Story) They had to stay outside until they absolutely couldn't stand it anymore. Then they could come in. I also had three dogs so although my children didn't create puddles, the damn dogs sure did.

While out, I said fuck this and headed over to my friend's house a block away. We merrily drank for the next 90 minutes until I felt the courage to brave the weather home. I get home to an absolute spotless house and a husband who is screaming thanks that I'm alive. I shit you not, screaming to the fucking heavens!<br /><br />Turns out he though I had fallen in a snow bank, suffocated and died. BUT, he thought it would be best before he called 911 to have a clean house!!!!! He thought if the house was as messy as when I left it would "be suspect" . I then was the one to get yelled at for not calling to let him know where I was!<br /><br />Where the hell else would I have went? They were the only friends within a 20 mile radius.

I lay a couple beach towels out on the kitchen floor and they are only allowed to come in and out THAT door. Its an in and out thing for us too, spare mittens and hats are a must. I never understood the milk thing. I can live through a snow storm without milk. Now toilet paper on the other hand is a must, but you never hear anyone say "There's a snow storm coming, I need to stock up on ass wipe" Go figure.

We got snOMG that you're getting, and apparently it's decided to come back to us today. We had a snow day Thursday and one yesterday, and I'm betting we'll have at least a delay tomorrow.<br /><br />In the school district I grew up in, they didn't close unless it was a snowpocalypse. I now teach in a school district that has ten (TEN!) snow days built into the school calendar. I'm still giddy every time we get a snow day.<br /><br />And at our school, if the students choose to play in the snow we don't let them whine about being wet and cold. Not that this helps you at all, but I always got bored in the snow and I don't have kids so I'm of no help other than this :/Krystihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04521092008172230055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984487997306130330.post-62541398589194001692013-02-26T18:36:33.039-06:002013-02-26T18:36:33.039-06:00Shawnee Mission schools already called off for tom...Shawnee Mission schools already called off for tomorrow.
