Snowed In…Still?

The kids had school today. And I sent them. In retrospect this was probably a mistake, since it was snowing. But I desperately needed a break. Actually, I really only sent Gregory. I ended up taking DJ to school, then just staying there for about an hour and a half reading a magazine in the other room so that he could get some energy out, then left with him. We had to go to the store, since in the past 4 days at home they managed to eat about 3/4 of the food and drink ALL of the liquids. Luckily, though, when we got home, Gregory came soon after on his own since even the Boys and Girls Club desided to close. Then we hear that the Superintendent realized he made a mistake allowing the schools to be open. Gee…ya think? So now schools are closed for the rest of the week. And my insanity clause has been clinched. *evil grin*
So now, before tomorrow, I have to somehow think up 837 potrait subjects, invent 17 games, find 11 books to read that the kids haven’t already heard a million times, dig through errant boxes for more art supplies, AND still clean the whole house, since the Section 8 inspector is coming on Friday, and somehow I doubt a little snow will keep them away. Of course, one can hope, but with my luck, I would be all hopeful, then not clean, then have to open the door and be sheepish and mortified. Of course, I still will fail inspection since manintenance STILL never fixed the door to the boys’ room, and with all this snow I highly doubt they will get to it tomorrow.
So, other than that, things are relatively boring here, I know. I feel like my sense of humor and my sense of creativity have both been sucked away by some great cosmic Hoover. Hopefully it’s only because of the weather.
