Ice, Ice, Baby

Those immortal lyrics sum up the past few days around here. Everything was business as usual, we spent the weekend getting most of our Christmas shopping done, we had survived the first two days of the week, and then the ice mist hit. The weird thing about it was that it snuck up on us. It started as a few rain drops and seemed harmless, but ended as an entire night of ice mist that turned every surface into a sheet of ice. Wednesday morning we both got calls for two hour delays, and then two hours later got calls that school was cancelled for the day. This morning we had a two hour delay, and are of course hoping for another tomorrow morning!

I am trying to cram as many Christmas activities into the few hours I had at school today and hopefully tomorrow. The kiddos are psyched (or should I say psycho?) for Christmas to be so close. In fact they even started arguing with each other about how many days until the "big day". I just have to keep telling myself, "One more day Kristen, one more day!"

I finished all of my work for the class I was taking this semester last night, but haven't seen my grades yet, so I hope they turn out good. I am very happy to have a few weeks off until the next semester starts!

This weekend we have Christmas with the Parmer's and break officially starts-whoo hoo! If anyone is going to be around over the break let me know, I'd love to have a mini-reunion!
