    Default Waiting for the list

    Morning!

    Sitting here in the kitchen listening to the local radio station - which i can't normally stand in the morning - to see if our local school is closed. My elder daughters school is closed so she is happily lazing in bed (she is 15). Feel sure that if local one is closed will have a hot phone for the next hour. Will either be a busy day or a nice quiet one as i am not due to be working this morning

    I have a black german shepherd 7 month old puppy who is really enjoying the snow - never normally wants to out in the garden after having his morning walk but can't get him in this morning - mind you he look really cool against the white snow.

    Well - back to listening!

    All my 3 schools are closed so everyone bar the 1 preschooler I have is staying at home.
    Shame pre schooler is coming really because husband's school is closed too - Ah well, I have to be available for work and I know some are struggling to find work so I won't complain.

    Our school is open!

    Just got back from taking them - youngest daughter not happy she has had to go when sister is at home.

    On the up side i can get some housework done this morning and promised nbursery kids we can build a snowman when i pick them up.

    Hope snow is around for older ones when they get home - could do with it gone tomorrow though

    So much for building a snowman - really disappointed as the snow here is the sort that is crunchy and then doesn't stick together so no snowman however, made the best of it and we had a mini snowball fight (as i say it won't stick together) and jumped around making footprints. Just come back for food and a warm drink - we all plan to snuggle up and watch a film this pm till time to go back to school Sun has been shining here and all looks very pretty
