Don’t bring your trash talk into my backyard, Joe McClung! I know where you live. Sorta. (and I totally went home and ordered ski pants. I’m a disgrace.)

Evangeline, wow. Minivan sledding…this gives me ideas. (But glad you made it accident free)

Amy K…I need a moment to pray for you. Because working in my pjs…makes it all worthwhile.

Salle, of course this isn’t THE version. That’s what made it funny. To me. Come on–Ricky Martin!

Amy, nutters. I’m gonna have to use that.

Sarah, I’m so sorry. Still nothing? We got 6-7 inches.

Colene, I know this doctor…
(Get to feeling better. Sorry you can’t even enjoy the snow day!)

Great call on the clothes not matching….btw, it’s worth mention that neon colored snow clothes garner you extra street cred in the sledding community.

Oh, and you may want to mention something about wearing layers and lots of them….especially under your jeans. Just saying.

On Thursday all the districts around us were on two hour delay but not our district! We live on a hill, in fact, our house sits right at 7,000 feet above sea level. So I bundled the kids up, packed them in the nugget mobile and got them to school. Getting down the hill is the easy part. Getting up the hill, not so much. I had to park the nugget mobile in the street, shovel my ski run driveway, then try again. But I forgot I had the parking break on. I slid back down our street and into the cross street before I figured out the break was on. I have nothing against sledding as long as I’m not doing it in a mini van.

I’m obviously in the minority here. I hate snow. With a passion. Anything that makes me cold and gets my socks wet is something I will avoid at all costs. I got to stay home yesterday too, but I still had to work since I had a laptop, electricity and an Internet connection. *sigh* The ONLY good thing about a snow day is that I can work in my pajamas.

Brilliant post! (I’m trying to sound more British, is it working?) My mom is a retired kindergarten teacher and she, too, loved the snow day. Of course, she has a HUGE fear of driving in the snow, which has gotten much better since she’s gotten older. Still, she loved the snow day. Who cares the reason?

Everyone secretly loves the Snow Day…well, unless they’re nutters (see, another British term).

No snow day here. Springfield was surrounded by a bubble all night and it didn’t start snowing until 5 in the morning, so no late opening for me at work-or my really big wish-a day off. It’s been super slow at the library too and it hasn’t stopped snowing all day. It came late, but maybe it’ll stick around and make me happy.

It’s taco soup day here too.
And Gina, sledding WITH a helmet? Must add chapter on the valor in head injuries…
