Hello again,
The weather again is quite atrocious and cold. I'm beginning to forget what going to school is like. Tomorrow marks the third day off this week and we had Friday off which makes it four snow days in row. This actually is the ninth day off and we have only had nine and a half days on since school started in January. There is more bad weather on the horizon, no pun intended,well maybe actually. I've accumulated a cold and cabin fever from being inside. I actually wish we had school, it's weird that the lessons I planned two weeks ago I can still use since we've had almost zero days at school. I definitely miss my kiddos. The days go so much slower and I don't feel as productive or that I did as much. For example, today I worked out, met Katie at the coffee shop which was slightly awkward since we couldn't talk about our kiddos so we had almost nothing to talk about. I am busy preparing for the michigan educator test and of course catching up on my Psych. Maybe I'll look ahead to making valentines. Hoping school starts back soon....cabin fever is contagious....

Happy Friday world!
We'll believe it or not, the snow did let up and school did begin again. We even had outdoor recess which is a first I believe in months. Today felt like a Tuesday, so it didn't really have the flow that Fridays usually have. The kids were a little more antsy and tired then usually. I had a couple of tears, from the students. I wish there had been a class on dealing with the issues of students, sometimes I just feel really inadequate. The quarter ends next week, so busy planning for that. Hopefully not too many more snow days, as we got to pack in the quarterlies.

Hello,
So one of my new year's resolutions was to keep a journal of the coming year. As it is day 7, I am already behind, but as I am snowed in and the third consecutive snow day is tomorrow, I no longer have an excuse. Today is an exceptionally cold day and I have heard that the entire country is being hit. Even Indianapolis issued a state of emergency and no one can be out except for emergency vehicles. The wind chill was 40 below. The heat in the house couldn't keep up, but it did mean we got to keep little Annie an extra day. She was supposed to go home yesterday back to Grand Rapids, but due to the weather mom and dad took her back this afternoon. She is so cute and just starting to walk, slow and like an old granny, but definitely walking independently. I am getting a little cabin fever from being inside for so long, but definitely thankful for being warm. Definitely shows the character of people, my dad has been outside working for 2 hours, seemingly shoveling the entire neighborhood.
Tomorrow is another snow day, but I really would like to start school so. I am getting tired of sitting on the couch reading and watching tv. I am ready to start doing something with a purpose and I haven't exercised in about 2 weeks.
