This was the best sight I have seen today; seems we are stuck at home for day #3, which would not be bad if day #1 had of been a Saturday...but it was a Monday, so this means our kids have been stuck at home for 5 days in a row with very little time to play outside due to the bitterly cold temperatures.....so........this is a picture of Eric driving off with the kids and one of the neighbors and two of their kids to go to the grocery store and run around and get essentials ... and ... a much deserved trip to the McDonald's playground to go get some of their energy out!!
They say that the roads will probably not clear up until Friday afternoon, so that would be one week without school ... it was fun at first, but I think the kids might go stir crazy by Friday, only to have a weekend, and that my friends is a week with no school. That is enough to make this old woman weak!!
The mound beside Eric's truck is the mound of ice we scrapped last night so that our cul-de-sac might be more manageable today. One of our neighbors left yesterday while he could, with a suitcase, so that he could go to work, and then just spend the night there until the weather improved enough for him to come back home.....oh the sacrifices we sometimes have to make to pay the bills!!
Hope you all are warm!!
