home day

Gracie is home from school today, she was up a lot last night and is tired and laying on the couch now. Hopefully she will turn around today. Bethy is home today too, but she feels great. The school called and said there was a small electrical fire last night and it knocked out the heating system. So, no heat, no school! It is nice to have them home and not having to to drive them around all day. It is freezing today which is another reason to be enjoying some home time. We woke up to it near -25 and it will only warm up a bit more than that. It is sunny though! I am wishing we start to get some snow because it will warm up then! This is the latest we have gone with no real snow to talk of. Last year it all came at the begining of Dec, we are still waiting. I'll take the snow over the cold!

Humm, make some lunch for the kids, cuddle on the couch with some tea, read some books, play some backgammon, sounds like a great day off to me!
