This morning we woke up to trees covered in ice and our porch in sleet. I knew instantly that the schools would be closed here in our county, and they were. I also knew that we would not be going to the YMCA program or swim practice.
The sleet and ice stopped about 9 a.m. and TT thought we should go ahead and go, but not me. I wasn't worried about getting there it was getting home after dark and the temperature dropping. Good thing I we stayed because a little after noon the sleet started again and lasted for over 3 hours.
To be honest I was relieved. We hadn't completed much school work this week so it gave us time to catch up. Plus my laundry had really piled up so I could tackle it too. This afternoon I was able to take some time to plan our next science unit study, The Human Body. I ordered a few more books for both Poogie and TT from Rainbow Resource to complete the unit. I plan on starting it in a few weeks. I also plan on posting my unit here on my blog.
I feel much more relaxed heading into the weekend knowing that my laundry is caught up, school work will be completed and the house is clean. So today I have to say that, yes a winter storm warning was a good thing.
