Mmm....temps. are too cold again today to send the kids to school so here we are at home! What started out as 2hr. delays the night before have turned into cancellations by morning because the weather has dipped down into these FRIGID temperatures this week.
Like the humidity and heat in the summer, this winter cold sucks the breath right out of you. I just came in from putting the garbage to the curb and boy, to say it's a little bit chilly is an understatement.
This is when we need underground tunnels to other SAHM's houses because we get a little crazy when we don't venture outside AT ALL...
But, we have this wonderful basement that is virtually empty (read, has a lot of space to run around in) so we do venture down there at some point in the day to get some of the kinks out.
I'm also secretly thankful that we don't have school because I really don't like being out there when it's this cold and it means I don't have to bundle up the girls and worry about whether they are warm enough on our walk to and from, and it means I don't have to explain AGAIN, why we need to hurry home so "no Matthew we can't linger along the way so you can play in the snow..." and finally it means that I don't have to resort to driving him because it's too cold and turn into a crazy lady while I wait in the drop off line....seriously, those lines are so stressful for me!
So home we'll stay and probably bake some more. Although I'm starting to run out of butter and there's not much you can do without butter.
