HOLY CARP!!!
|
It's a Core teaching day today. Because we have kids coming from all over, we have to cancel if the buses are canceled, which they are due to snow squalls. So, I've been emailing re: rescheduling since 6am, and then initiated our emergency phone tree at 7am, so kids could start calling each other to let them know. Talked to many sleepy kids (and parents!) this morning! Now I have to reschedule the artist we had booked, make sure that matches with our classroom and our schedules. Fun times!!

See, she'll have an edge over those grumpy old ladies who are afraid to go out in snowy conditions. Knowing they're likely to come in tomorrow when the weather breaks, Dol can pour some canola oil in the drier bins before she leaves for home. |

Hmmm. Laundry . . . An ongoing project. Our roads have been crazy too. Lots of inexperienced drivers slip sliding every where. I think the snow sticks around longer in ON. |

If you wanna get in the Landromat Game, you gotta be aggressive. If some old lady's encroaching on your washer, dol, box out!! Use your elbows and throw 'em around with your hips. Don't take no crap! EDIT The canola oil thing's both evil and awesome, P.S.
