When does the "warm" in Global Warming start? Anything I can do to help?

As I speak, it is -22 F. That means 22 degrees below ZERO. That is NOT the windchill.

Of course, school is still in session. Which is why I had a "Christmas Story" scenario bundling up 4 of my kids after sending Jack on his way with Jared. We hopped in the car, went to pick up the first carpool stop, to learn that our school, not any others near us, has a two hour delay start. (As if THAT's going to help!)

So, we get to get in the car and do it all again in an hour and half. I say, we just stay home and bake cookies.

But, it'll have to be a REALLY cold day (in hell) before school is actually canceled so we could do that.

I love Minnesota, I love Minnesota, I love Minnesota....

Ho-ly smokes! As much as I'd love to get out of California, I don't know that I'd love to go through that! I'd want to homeschool -- at least through the winter months! (or at least keep my kids home and make a lot of cookies like you suggested) Good luck!

I was so sure that school was going to be cancelled this morning. With the windchill it was -35 when my girls got on the bus. I keep thinking when is it too cold, apperently never....

If the repetion of loving MN works let me know so I can try it(:

WOW!! I can't even imagine. Keep up the mantra of I love this place, I love this place.... it might work. (and just bake cookies next time). You guys looked fabulous on your Christmas card. I loved it! Thanks. Hope you got my email with Craig's address and such. Talk to you soon.
