Snow Day Tuesday

[namastebiotches]

What's it like by you?

I just measured, so far we have a whopping 3.5 inches. It's allegedly supposed to be 1-2 more today & 1-3 more overnight into tomorrow. DH said the roads were just wet this morning so hopefully they can keep the roads clean & it won't be too bad as far as travelling.
We need to go downtown tomorrow afternoon for another appt (hopefully our last for a while.)

We have about 6 inches here so far and still snowing. I'm thinking we may be out again tomorrow.

We do have an appointment later this afternoon so I'm hoping it's not too bad.

DS was super excited for his snow day today! We've had breakfast after sleeping in. It's a rare snow day that all 3 of us are home. SO is on shift tomorrow. I'll make a pie for pie day with my unexpected time off.

DS has been whining about going outside but the real feel is 5 degrees. It's pretty windy. I really really don't want to. Ughhh

I don't know what to make for lunch. It's so much harder now that I have to feed a kid, too. It has really made me aware of how much I eat cheese. Lol. Kid can't eat a cheese stick for lunch every day. I think we're doing something with a can of tuna.

I texted that mom again today. Idk what the protocol is for an ignored text. I'm gonna give her the benefit of the doubt since I know she has at least 3 kids. Maybe she accidentally deleted the first one or forgot to respond or whatever.
If this one goes unanswered then maybe I'll call. The note did say text so maybe she gave me the wrong #? Idk I guess we'll see

We have general elections for our parliament tomorrow (150 seats) from the polls it looks like there are going to be 5 major parties with 15-25 seats each, which will result in difficulties in forming a viable government. Especially since one of those (fortunately no longer predicted to be the largest) is our own blond muslimbasher. Nobody wants to work with him. That's good, but the rest of the field is very divided. The greens have a even younger version of Trudeau, who is supposed to get them a better result than ever before.

The world is weird nowadays so I want this election to be over already, let me now what results we have to deal with.

Well, DS is out of school for likely the rest of the week. There was a fire in one of the district buildings luckily it was over night and no one was hurt. The building is a total loss though.

My school has the potential to be out for the same amount of time since we share resources. I'm torn as to what I'm hoping for...although DS would be coming with me to school if we are in operation. My principal offered that suggestion to me since so many people in our area is in some way affected and the local YMCA has already stated they cannot provide emergency care in this circumstance. Ugh!

Oh no! I'm glad no one was hurt.

Well we have far surpassed the 20 inches they were predicting. I think we are close to 3 feet, possibly more.

I am worried about DH. He is working till 7:00 and plans to try to drive home. I wish he would just stay at work to be safe, but I can't blame him for not wanting to sleep there. He's supposed to call me before he leaves so I have one more chance to plead with him.

Wow that's a lot of snow.
If he decides to drive, hope the roads are okay & he has no issues coming home!

No cause as if yet namastebiotches and @led. It was the board offices so they have no phones, internet, etc. so devastating and our community isn't very wealthy. It's so sad.

Were you able to convince him?

Yes! He is going to stay at work.

It'll be weird here without him and without DD too, but it's for everyone's safety.

That's good! Enjoy your free time. And stay warm.

@misspeansmama that's good to hear but I'm just curious where will he sleep? Lol
