The girls did have school, with a 2 hour delay. i suppose that's time to let the sun melt the crap left on the roads, to let teachers get in from the 'burbs (after shoveling the snow off their cars and letting them run with the defrogger on for at least 30 minutes), and yet not have to tack an extra day on in June for the sake of a snow day. I think that the district finally figured out how to handle a snowy day in a reasonable manner. After the kids were all stuck getting released from school during a terrible blizzard-like thundery storm in December, and then had a snow day for a day with a light rain in January .... the February snow brought wisdom to the school officials. good for them.

and my office is closed, i heard from my supervisor, so i am working at home. frantically.

the kids had such a great time with their play this past weekend. i am very glad that i signed them up for the community theater group for this coming spring. Thing One has to go in this afternoon for an "audition," b/c she is missing the first session due to our trip to California on Wednesday evening. Thing Two doesn't start hers until mid-March. They're both excited, and I'm excited for them. Their friends are also involved in this, so they will have a really good time, I think. Doing this will also help them hone their skills so they can get bigger parts in the school plays in coming years.

I can't believe I'm going to CA in a couple of days. I need to pack. It's very different weather there, from what I can tell. It has been very warm and sunny, but the forecasts seem to say that it will be only in the low 60s when I get there, and perhaps a bit foggy. i should also make some phone calls to the girls' old friends to make sure that they have time to see everybody.

but now, i'm off to write about true threats. i'll have to deal with the packing and the calling and the planning later.
