So Cold

The temp is below zero and the windchill of course is even worse. All the schools in the county are closed today....just too dangerous for the kids. I'm not complaining, but I just don't remember having days off from school because of the cold when I was younger. I spoke with Mom yesterday and she didn't either. She said she just made sure we were covered and sent us on our way...we walked about 5 blocks to school.

I slept a little later, because I knew before I went to bed that school would be called off. So today, I am planning on giving the babies their grooming and baths. They need it too!

I can't believe the weather, it is cold here but nothing like it is their. My friends and family in MN are feeling -50 windchill.
Stay in and have a great day grooming your babies and take some pictures.

We are supposed to have a high of 40 today, which is cold for us. I can't imagine how cold it must be for you guys

Our kids had a 2 hour delay today. But we have a day off tomorrow because of the grading period. It's bitter cold up here too. I hated to go to lunch.

Our temperature is around 9* today with a wind chill that makes it about -5* or so. We're finally getting snow but it's not going to be much more than a covering, but it is pretty to look at through the window. I can't imagine living any further north than this because it has to be cold!!!! We only get below zero once in a while, not for long periods. Everyone.....keep warm!!!!

It's supposed to get down to -13 tonight & then even colder with wind chill. We have my grandpa to dinner tonight, we usually go out, but we're staying in with him tonight.

So what's for dinner? Hope it all goes well. How's the snow there?
We've gotten about 14 inches so far.

Waffles are the only thing that I can make that he approves of. My grandma was a wonderful cook so he got pretty spoiled all those years, but he loves my waffles.

We've probably gotten 10-12. We were supposed to get hit with some lake effect today, but we don't get it much anymore, unless the wind is just right.

They never cancelled school for cold temps when I was a kid either. I remember being snowed in out in the country & my parents snowmobiling us to the highway to get on the bus to go to school. They take it too easy on kids now a days.

Donna, that sounds really nice but it's not hardly worth going out in this weather for. Now if your temps were 75*+ I'd be on my way!!!!!!

No comment from me lol
Bundle up everyone!
My fingertips still don't have all the feeling back after freezing them in my gloves, shovelling the sidewalks after work today (3 hours ago!). It has been snowing every single day!
