Michigan is closed for business due to a** freezing temperatures. This is our third day off from school. Expected to be colder tomorrow.
Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

We've had one day of preschool in the last two weeks... All of last week was cancelled for weather, they were in for Monday this week, and out for Tuesday/Wednesday this week. Whether they'll have class tomorrow is questionable. My daughter has been in school for five days now since Christmas break. We're going a bit stir crazy.

I wondered if he could ever understand that it was a blessing, not a sin, to be graced with more than one love.
It could be complicated; of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss.
Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.

I'm very glad I live a little south of the vortex line's worst doings. It was in the single digits here overnight and didn't get above freezing today, but it's nothing like Chicago, etc. By Sunday we're supposed to hit 65. I can't wait. My arthritis is not happy.

Can you hear me, Major Tom? I think I love you.
You're all incredibly brave! I was surprised to find my bedroom windows (inside) were covered in ice this morning. Our problem here is that we're never prepared for bad weather. Of any description...
They called school for the 5th day this week, between a foot-and-a-half of snow on Mondays, and Tuesday, and blowing snow & whiteouts on Wednesday, and air cold enough to freeze the pole off a polar bear today and tomorrow morning...

pole off a polar bear,you know there is a sex joke in there somewhere.
Anunitu, you naughty girl - the thought never occurred to me..

We're supposed to have weather around 40/50 above this weekend... almost immediately following the 40/50 below. I hate Iowa. I'm glad we're having a break from the cold, but this means that there won't be a single day where the weather was decent enough to take my kiddo sledding while there was snow on the ground.

I'm starting to thaw finally! It almost felt warm at 11 degrees today. I promise to never complain about it not being cold enough again after spending those three days with -25 degree temps. Unlink most companies around me, mine did not close and we were at work in a freezing warehouse. I'm glad its over. I will be outside in shorts tomorrow with the temp up to 30.
