Ice!

Ice on the earth, bitter black frost, and a winding sheet of snow upon her withered breast, and deep within me, dread and ice.- Jessica MacBeth

We had the ice storm last night. The kids knew they had a two hour delay before 7PM last night so they happily slept in this morning. The school ended up cancelling class for today as towns have closed roads because they are so bad. This is the road to my house... I was suppose to go do some banking and pick up a prescription for my mom but the road there is closed so that is not going to happen today. I also had a Dr. appt for #2 to get another check up to make sure the pneumonia had cleared up but they called to cancel that. Boy Scouts is cancelled for tonight.
So what does one do with all this unexpected free time? Well, after skating our way around doing the chores, we take pictures so sis in Puerto Rico knows to bring her woolies when she comes home for Christmas! After posting said pics, we grab a blanket, some Christmas DVD's, and present fiber project and enjoy!
